  Tresting sounds like a pleasant individual.

  
  

  That was a lie.

  Kelsier is definitely more to my liking

  
  

  And thank god we're away from Tresting. I got enough of that from my history of slavery class last year.

  Reen sounds like a jerk

  Guess: Kelsier's going to die by the end of the book, and Vin's going to be the central protag for the next book

  
  

  He's just too cool to live

  I'm getting V for Vendetta vibes all over.

  
  

  There's no way they're going to pull it off though. Not in the first book, at least.

  Me and Vin are at disagreements.

  So, that was Kel in action. Impressive.

  Too much is being planned. The more is laid out in a story, the less likely that it'll go smoothly.

  
  

  ^ -pap- don't underestimate me. 38 chapters would be nothing for a younger Yarrun, and I haven't gotten that old.

  We claim to be doing good,” Ham said. “But, the Lord
  Ruler—as God—defines what is good. So, by opposing him
  we’re actually evil. But, since he’s doing the wrong thing,
  does evil actually count as good in this case?

  Bless you, Ham, you pedantic nerd

  So that's what atium does. And that's how powerful the Lord Ruler is.

  
  

  Maybe he's just a souped up steel inquisitor, now that I think about it. I mean, they seem unstoppable.

  He stinks of romance subplot. I hate romance subplot.

  I'm tempted to skip the chapter entirely, but that won't do.

  Hit the end of Chapter 19, just about at the halfway mark.

  
  

  Glad Kelsier's trying to nip this in the bud. Too little too late, probably, but still.

  While she rarely had to sit alone anymore,
  she was quickly coming to realize that none of the other noblemen
  had the same... depth as Elend. None of them had
  his droll wit, or his honest, earnest eyes. The others didn’t
  feel real. Not like he did.
