Difference between revisions of "Summary:The Lost Metal"

Marasi shoots the first few enemies who rush in through the main tunnel, and then goes up to the gap in the rock above the cavern to cover Wayne from above. Marasi uses two [[Malwish]] Allomantic grenades, trapping eighteen enemies in speedslowness bubbles. Wayne enters the main cavern to fight, and Marasi follows shortly after. The Cycle attempts to flee the cavern, and Marasi decides to go after him and let Wayne finish up in the cavern.

Marasi finds a book of numbers and shipping dates on the Cycle's person, and removes the other spikes. One of them is a [[trellium]] spike, which pulls away from the other spikes when near. She returns to the main cavern, where Wayne is playing cards with several tied-up criminals. Wayne had to tie up the criminals with shoelaces, which won't hold long. Marasi stays behind with the captives, subtly trapping them in a speedslowness bubble while Wayne runs off to get backup. She sees a blurred figure wearing a cloth mask approach the perimeter then run off. Shortly after, Wayne arrives with a multitude of constables, and they decide to go talk to Wax about what happened.

Marasi catches two of the scientists (and TwinSoul, inadvertently) in a speedslowness bubble, and she and Moonlight struggle with two guards and a third scientist. They had hoped not to use firearms, but Moonlight is being overwhelmed so Marasi shoots a guard. The scientists starts burning their notes, but Moonlight saves it, planning to use the repair soulstamp on it. They tie up the last two scientists and release the non-metalborn captives. Marasi recognizes a few of them, including a broadsheet editor who provides notes on where they should look for Entrone. Moonlight explains that Autonomy's invasion force will probably come through Shadesmar. While the usual access from Shadesmar would be to the south, Autonomy has some ability to open other perpendicularities. They are interrupted by more guards.

Marasi and the other Allomancers from the Community start quickly drawing in the power in the pool, and Marasi charges her Allomantic grenades. She tells the others to use up the power using their Allomancy. The enemy troops on the other side start to come through the portal, but Marasi drops both of her grenades through the portal, mentally commanding the portal to allow them to pass through. With the enemy troops temporarily frozen in speedslowness bubbles, Marasi and the other Allomancers successfully use up the last of the power in the well.
