Why did the Lord Ruler [in Mistborn] have to stay aged at times? p
That’s when he was doing his rebuild. He didn’t really have to, but he let himself. He has to recharge periodically, and then stays on a higher and higher burn over the thousand years. It gets harder and harder. The way the magic works—he doesn’t have to stay aged.
Is he burning or tapping?
He’s tapping.
