=== Transportation ===
A portion of the [[atium]] mined at the Pits of Hathsin is secretly transported to [[Luthadel]] by the [[Canton of Resource]], mixed into and disguised as Ministry funds. Since metal coins radiate powerful light in the [[Cognitive Realm]], the atium beads, when mixed with other coins, can be transported safely without being discovered by [[Ruin]].{{book ref|mb3|79}}
=== Kandra ===
[[Kandra]] are known to only accept atium for their service. Their "contract", purchased with steep prices, provides the [[Kandra]]'s absolute loyalty and their powerful imitating skills during the time. However, the fulfilling of Contracts actually has another purpose. All the atium they earn is brought to their Homeland where it is stockpiled in a metal vault, the Trust. They do this because atium is condensed power of Ruin, and by storing it in a place where Ruin has no influence, they deny him access to a part of his power.
