|The lake that [[Fedik]] discovered is below us now—I can see it from the ledge. It looks even more eerie from up here, with its glassy—almost metallic—sheen. I almost wish I had let him take a sample of its waters.

When [[Alendi]] and [[Rashek]] were climbing the [[Terris]] mountains, to the [[Well of Ascension]], they encountered Ruin's Perpendicularity.{{book ref|tfe|29}} Alendi's companion, Fedik showed interest in the pool but Alendi refused to let him take samples.{{epigraph ref|mb1|33}} The [[Leras|mist spirit]] stabbed Fedik shortly afterward, possibly due to his interest in the perpendicularity.

When Rashek took the power at the Well, he moved Ruin's Perpendicularity underground, where it remained at least up until the [[Catacendre]].{{wob ref|5786}} The perpendicularity was moved to the [[Pits of Hathsin]], which is why the crystals produced [[atium]].{{wob ref|5525}} The perpendicularity was used by [[worldhopper]]s in an interplanetary trade system, which was upended when [[Kelsier]] destroyed the atium geodes, to which [[Hoid]] remarked "was fun to watch".{{msh ref|2|1}} The pools underneath the pits no longer exist following the Catacendre,{{wob ref|5600}} however, it is unclear if this is related to Kelsier's destruction of the atium geodes or the combining of Ruin and Preservation into the shard Harmony.
