Yes, I am aware, to clarify, even when we see investiture used for things like surgebinding or allomancy, it's implied that the investiture returns to the shard it's keyed to eventually, I'm asking whether that still applies to annihilation, or if the investiture remains as matter or energy perpetually (barring external intervention).
We've seen that most investiture that was used returns to the shards power eventually, like with burnt Atium returning to the pits, so does the same thing happen with investiture that was annihilated on contact with anti-investiture, where it eventually returns to shard it's keyed to, or is the investiture permanently gone?
One thing I'm really hoping to see in the future is a story with a much grander scale, told from the perspective of a Shard, or maybe even Adonalsium himself, letting us see things from a significantly larger perspective, like maybe a prequel showing the creation of Scadrial from Leras and/or Ati's perspective, or maybe a short story focusing on the mechanics of Braize or Canticle.
The Iriali are splinters of Virtuosity who fled Komashi, and one of the first worlds they visited was Sel, where they formed a pact with the Skaze, and the entire long trail is an elaborate cover-up, and they're actually scouting new worlds for the Skaze to conquer.
Thank you, I actually found my way here by accident.
Xisisrafliel and the Diagram
Mraize's aviar 'chicken' was obviously a descendant of one smuggled off Drominad by the Ire, who had known about Patji's perpendicularity for centuries, and Kelsier stole it from the Ire and gave it to Iyatil, who gave it to Mraize.
The Recreance and Bavadin
Kill Leshwi (I'M SORRY, I REALLY DON'T WANT TO), Kiss Raboniel, Marry El (I think he's deevy, but I still recognise that is an objectively bad take, feel free to judge me)
