I’m still kinda new here, so apologies if this has been discussed before. I’ve been thinking about the kandra religion and their prophecies after my last reread of the Mistborn series. In WoA, OreSeur (TenSoon) tells Vin that the kandra have a prophecy that they will only be free of the Contract when all the humans are dead. While he states that the prophecies are metaphorical, I could easily see some kandra taking them literally.
So my first question is: did the kandra religion arise organically separate from the old Terris religion? Did the Lord Ruler know about it?
Secondly, I wondered if this is connected to the Set’s Faceless Immortals? Are they a splinter group of radicals who want to bring about the removal of humankind through a twisted interpretation?
I’m curious what others think. Maybe I’m way off base!
