Kindle Notes & Highlights
Some called her paranoid. She thought herself prepared.
There was a very good chance that someone in their core team—a member of Kelsier’s former band—was now an impostor.
Omg
This dark thing that follows me, the thing that only I can see—it isn’t really a shadow. It’s blackish and translucent, but it doesn’t have a shadowlike solid outline. It’s insubstantial—wispy and formless. Like it’s made out of a dark fog. Or mist, perhaps.
“The Lord Ruler didn’t wear a crown.” “The Lord Ruler didn’t need to remind people that he was in charge,” Tindwyl said.
But he was also Zane’s brother.
???
A man was defined not by his flaws, but by how he overcame them.
Zane grabbed the carving knife off the table. Straff looked up from his meal, then flinched slightly as Zane sliced the flesh of his own arm.
omg thats actually so sad poor zane
Yet she kept thinking of Sazed’s words. Something was happening with the mists. Something was wrong.
I love when scenes end like that
“And you. You are so much more than you are willing to accept, child. Why focus on only one side of yourself, when your Elend sees so much more?”
The skin was covered with thin white streaks. Scars.
“I don’t intend to vacate the position for quite some time yet.
a few paragraphs later he was deposed HELP
“I think I just realized what the Deepness was.”
omg IT WAS INFRONT OF US ALL ALONG??
Elend apparently wanted to remind everyone who his friends were. Powerful men. Frightening men. Men who killed gods.
“Because if I accept that Elend bears no guilt for what his people did to mine, then I must admit to being a monster for the things that I did to them.”
“It makes sense. That’s the way it has always been.”
“I would love to,” he said quietly.
omgg when r they gonna start dating
Emotions like curiosity. Respect. Love.
OMGGG
I am hope.
Horror. No, she thought, her mind fading. Please, Elend, not that.…
my shaylaaa :(
He nodded to Ham, then left without looking back at the men who had discarded him.
“He will soon know that there is something in this world more deadly than his assassins. Something more powerful than his army. Something more terrifying than the Lord Ruler himself. “And I am coming for him.”
And they left him behind, alone amid the corpses of what had once been a squad of forty men.
SHES DOING ALL OF THIS YET IT WAS ZANE AND STRAFF WHO SHOULD BE THE ONES GETTING ATTACKED LIKE OMG
Mistborn.
Mistborn.
Why? Why can’t I make sense of anything anymore?
BC OF ZANE OMGG
Vin followed quietly, feet crunching splinters of wood as she slowly withdrew, leaving the broken keep, shattered army, and humiliated lord behind.
ALL BC YOURE TRUSTING ZANE OVER COMMON SENSE VIN OMGG
“I love you.”
bro what
“You will no longer obey her commands, TenSoon,” Zane said.
WHAT IS GOING ON WHO IS TENSOON
But by reacting, Zane had shown her what she was going to do. Let her see the future. And if she could see it, she could change it.
OMG
He met her eyes, then collapsed into the mists, his body thumping against the wooden floor.
HELLO?? OMGGGG
“The voice. You were the first person I ever met that it didn’t tell me to kill. The only person.”
You’re not insane. “You never were.”
STTTOOOOOPPPPPPP ZANE NOOO MY SHAYLAAA
“I couldn’t change the future, but Zane could. By starting to counter my attack before I even knew what I was going to do, he inadvertently showed me the future. I reacted against him, and he tried to block a blow that never came. That let me kill him.”
this is actually so crazy omg
And so she ran to him.
AWWWWWW OMG
“Do you know any wedding ceremonies?”
OMG
“You two should try to rest well tonight, despite the change in your relationship.
LOL
“And is it stubbornness or hope that kept you here in the city?” he asked. She looked up at him. “Neither.”
At that moment, the wall-top warning drums began to beat.
Then, in one fluid stroke, he drew his sword and sheared Jastes’s head from his shoulders. “But my kingdom cannot.”
WHAT
“It’s at Luthadel.”
WHAT
And the gates burst open.
Breeze looked right in time to see a massive koloss sword shear through Clubs’s upraised arm, then continue on to hit the general in the ribs. Clubs grunted, thrown to the side, his sword arm—weapon and all—flying free. He stumbled on his bad leg, and the koloss brought his sword down in a two-handed blow. The dirty snow finally got some color. A splash of red.
OMG
He found her body sometime near morning.
OMG NOOO (lwk hated her tho so)
My life, he thought, has been a sham.
SAZED NOOOO MY SHAYLA
As she moved, her koloss troops struck the front ranks of Straff’s army, and the real carnage began.
AHHHH I LOVE VIN
“We’re marching to the defense of Luthadel. And somebody send riders after that fool daughter of mine!”
YAY
He left ruin in his wake, but it was forgotten, Sazed thought, turning to watch her fly. He created kingdoms, and then destroyed them as he made the world anew. We had the wrong gender all along.
OMG
Sazed was sure that he would have recognized her, even in such an amorphous form.
aww
“I wish I understood why I have to kill you,”
OMG WGAT
Alendi must not reach the Well of Ascension …
WHAT DOES THIS MEAN
