Radriac had fled, Miera was unconscious and Venten 'protected' by children. This wasn't how it was supposed to work. Without warning an idea came to Venten, one so stupid it just might work.
Venten tapped Nicrocil for it's storage of Allomantic bendalloy, stored some metals and grabbed his bendalloy mind off his arm.
Venten began scratching his bendalloy mind into consumable dust, which he promptly burnt. Venten squeezed every second out of it he could. When he was done he stopped everything, walked over to one of the children, grabbed a gun and shot himself.
