I’m rather late to the Mistborn series and have just had my heart and soul beautifully shattered by HoA and SH.
I have two questions that I think will give the kind of closure I’m looking for.
Was Elend misunderstanding or misled in any way when he looked into The Beyond and smiled? Was he truly “Elend” in this moment or merely a soul seeking/moving towards rest?
I truly believe that if Elend was indeed himself there, that he would only smile if he saw something that would facilitate happiness for both himself and Vin.
Curious to hear any thoughts that you all may have, and apologies if this topic has been previously answered and I somehow missed it.
