The Tin Gate was the first to be attacked by the koloss, quickly followed by the Pewter and Zinc Gates. The latter was the first to break. The Steel Gate was strongly protected by [[Sazed]], while the soldiers at the Tin Gate had to draw back early, which resulted in the koloss storming the city up to the Zinc Gate. Many soldiers drew back into the various keeps in the area. Up until sunset, [[Keep Lekal]] and [[Keep Venture]] had been stormed by the koloss. Thousands of soldiers gathered in [[Keep Hasting]] to protect King [[Penrod]]. [[Vin]] arrived at dusk.{{book ref|mb2|53}}

Although Vin was able to cover the retreat of many soldiers she could not stop the koloss, who marched on to Keep Hasting. At that time, only five thousand soldiers of Luthadel were left to face the remaining twelve thousand koloss. Vin discovered that she could control koloss by burning [[brass]], which enabled her to control the koloss army.{{book ref|mb2|54}}

At dawn Vin gathered her koloss army and the army of Luthadel at the west of the city to face the army of Straff Venture. As they collided Vin immediately attacked and killed Straff. After that, Cett arrived with his army of forty thousand soldiers to support Luthadel.{{book ref|mb2|55}}
