Also, we get to see here that Zane already has his fingers on Vin’s emotions. She’s beginning to question and doubt. This, however, isn’t a quick change—you should realize that all of these questions were already there inside of her. Not only is she a teenage girl, and living during an emotionally volatile part of her life, but she grew up learning to distrust and fear betrayal. Though she’s getting better, the old worries are all still there, and even a little bit of scratching at them reveals them again.
She never really had to confront these things. Falling in with the crew, learning to trust, was actually easy in the last book. Kelsier was there to make everything work out all right, and Vin was always underneath the watchful care of Sazed.
This book is about making her face these things directly.
