Difference between revisions of "Pits of Hathsin"

The '''Pits of Hathsin''' is a system of caves on [[Scadrial]] in which [[Atium]] crystals grow. It is also a concentration camp for troublesome [[Skaa]] set up by the [[Lord Ruler]] to mine the Atium crystals.

 

 

[[Allomancy]] cannot be used around the crystals, as they will shatter. That is why skaa are used. All skaa in the Pits have small scratches along their arms from the 'teeth' of the crystals. The Pits are looked after by [[House Venture]].

Brandon has also confirmed that the Pits of Hathsin is the location of the liquid form of [[Ruin]], the counterpart to the [[Well of Ascension]].
