Interview #826: Mistborn: The Final Empire Annotations, Entry #132

Brandon Sanderson (Chapter 27)

I like this scene for its return to task. The team is refocused, and re-energized, working toward their goal with renewed devotion. And lots of other ‘re’ words.

Anyway, there’s a good feel to this scene, and I think a lot is accomplished quickly. I also like how Vin finally confronts Kelsier about the Eleventh Metal. Right here, I guess the reader has to decide whether or not Kelsier is lying. Either he really did find legends about the Eleventh Metal, and he believes in it, or he didn’t.

The answer is, by the way, yes. He did find those legends—legends that Sazed hasn’t heard of. Legends nobody else has heard of. That is suspicious, true, but Kelsier himself believed them. More on where he got them comes later in the series.
