When a position opened in Fadrex, Yomen jumped at it, as he knew it was a place where most obligators didn't like to serve because it was too removed from important events. Of all the obligators in Luthadel, he was the only one of any distinguished record who wanted to go, and he beat out more qualified obligators from other cities, as he had connections with the Ministry elite in Luthadel.{{wob ref|7766}}

Within five years at Fadrex, he'd risen to being the [[Steel Ministry#Obligators|prelan]] of the local Ministry building, despite his youth.

As the former king of the Dominance, Cett left, Yomen seized the chance to appoint himself as the new king of the Western Dominance. He reintroduced the social structures under the Lord Ruler, which did not encounter resistance because the people were used to it. He wore a diadem with an [[atium]] bead on it to show his power and led people to believe he was a [[Allomancy|Mistborn]]. He escaped an attempt to be spiked with a [[Hemalurgy|Hemalurgic]] spike.
 
Some months before the [[Final Ascension]], [[Elend Venture]] moved the army of the [[New Empire]] to Fadrex City, which led to the [[Siege of Fadrex City]]. After the fashion of the Lord Ruler, Yomen continued to host balls for the nobles. Elend and Vin took advantage of this and attended a ball to intimidate the nobles and Yomen. Elend suggested that Yomen submit to him and continue to rule under his leadership. Yomen firmly rejected the idea, because in his opinion only those chosen by the Lord Ruler had the right to rule.

Some months before the [[Final Ascension]], [[Elend Venture]] moved the army of the [[New Empire]] to Fadrex City, which led to the [[Siege of Fadrex City]]. The siege resulted in an alliance between Yomen and Venture.
After two weeks Yomen started the first attack on the army of the New Empire. It consisted of three small attacks, one coming from north and the second from south. Both were used as a distraction from the third one, taking place at the koloss camp. Eleven thousand koloss died under the fire of catapults or killing each other in bloodlust.
