Alright so I think it's time to start the posts:
Prologue
We start with the text on top, which I am used to as I see it frequently in TSA. It seems to be from a man who is supposed to be a 'hero' but doubts himself.
The chapter properly begins with Lord Tresting, a man who is ruthless to his slaves, well by our standard anyway, it seems that the Skaa are treated like animals, and even worse than other slave groups in the Cosmere. He gets a visitor for a kind of religious, law-enforcing ambassador who shoves Tresting's treatment of the Skaa under the rug and commends his great work keeping them under his control. He notices a Skaa worker who is smiling directly at him, and feels uneasy, calling for a beating to make him feel better.
We then cut to the perspective of a man named Kelsier, which's first paragraph describes the setting of the world a bit more. It seems that he is unafraid of the nobles and would spark as much hope and rebellion into the Skaa working in their plantations. As Kelsier is conversing with an elderly Skaa named Mennis later that night, he is interrupted by a loud scream. It is mentioned that he earlier swallowed some Allomantic metals, and then he accesses his reserves of tin, enhancing his senses. I know that there is a whole system of metals and their attributes, but right now I'm clueless. He could hear a young Skaa girl being taken away from an older woman who seems to be her mother.
The very next day, Mennis wakes to find that the girl, whose name is Jess, had come home safely, and Lord Tresting dead. Mennis discovered that Kelsier escaped into the mists, which Skaa are terribly afraid of.
Chapter 1
We get introduced to Vin, a low-level criminal with a weird ability hmmmm I wonder if she'll ever meet another character with similar abilities hmm... She calls it 'Luck' and it seems to help soothe people's emotions, but doesn't really seem to understand it that much. It looked like she had a brother who was somewhat protective of her, but still a bully of sorts. She seems to accept that there is no such things as friendship in the underworld, and whoever she thinks she trusts will ultimately betray her. The leader of the crew Vin works for, Camon, (I feel like Michael Jackson probably made up that name first but whatever) has a job that would pay well and orders Vin to come along. Anyway long story short she uses her Luck on Laird, the obligator, and he secures a deal with an undercover Camon.
Chapter 2
Kelsier again! He goes back to the capital, Luthadel, and meets with his friend Dockson. The two discuss a criminal plan, and who they would invite to the team. We learn that Klsier has a brother, Marsh who sounds like Mudkip's second evolution.
We switch back to Vin, who is chilling alone at the hideout, reflecting on her life and how she was beaten the previous day. Camon then walks up to her and tells her that it is time for something.
Vin travels alongside Camon to the Steel Minisrty's Canton of Finance, where Camon is staging another agreement to get his hands on as many boxings as possible, with the persona of 'Lord Jedue. Vin and some of the other crewmembers act as Camon's servants, as he is instead met with a High Prelan, as Prlean Laird had been called away on business. She felt as if the obligator was getting suspicious of them, and used her Luck on him, making him less so.
We're again focused on Kelsier, as he is stuffing some waiting room cakes, as Camon exits the building. He and Dockson agree that Vin is special in one way or another, and Kelsier notices Vin's bruises from being beaten by Camon. As the two leave, Kelsier spots a Steel Inquisitor, with a metal spike pounded through his eyes. They assume that he is after Vin, and Kelsier leaves to deal with them.
Chapter 3
Vin suspects that something bad would happen, and the three thousand boxings they swindled out was too good to be true. She tells Ulef, her 'friend' that they need to leave immediately. AND THEN ULEF THE FLIPPIN IDIOT BETRAYS HER BY TELLING CAMON. Camon beats up Vin for it, but Kelsier steps in, and seems to be known by all the criminals as The Survivor Of Hathsin, being the only one to ever survive the Pits Of Hathsin. Milev listens to Kelsier's demand in exchange of dealing with the Inquisitor, and takes over the reigns of the team. Kelsier asks for an audience with Vin, as he and Dockson introduce themselves and runs tests. Turns out that Vin, along with Kelsier is... A MISTBORN!!!! (The name of the book :0 )
Chapter 4
Vin is introduced to Kelsier's Boisand meets Breeze, Ham, Clubs and their employer, Yeden. Kelsier arrives and casually mentions that their plan is to straight up overthrow the Final Empire, which has been active for a thousand years.
This is my proposed theory: (Prerequisite: Learn how to use the same time dilation technique that Hoid uses) 1. Be born a full Twinborn (Mistborn + Full Feruchemist). 2. Swallow a bead of Lerasium to become a more powerful Allomancer. 3. Travel to Sel, and use Feruchemy to Connect yourself to the world, turning you into both an Elantrian, and a Forger somehow. 4. Make sure to bond a Seon while you're on Sel, making interplanetary communication far easier. 5.Travel to Roshar, and swallow the crystal of Yelig-Nar, granting at least 9 surges, possible all 10. (Use Hoid's hacking of the magic systems to be able to leave the systems that might be difficult to leave) The main things I haven't thought out yet are the difficultness of leaving the Selish system because of the dangerous conditions in it's Cognitive Realm, and how you are supposed to leave Roshar while bonded to Yelig-Nar. For context, I have only read Stormlight and Elantris, and the rest is stuff I've accidently spoiled for myself through both my curiosity in the Coppermind, and in the forums.
