;Summary
Sazed and the First Generation peruse Sazed's notes to try to find Ruin's alterations. [[Haddek]] speaks of how Ruin and Preservation created the world and the people, and their bargain that was broken by Preservation. Sazed wonders at how his religion has so much in common with many of the others that he rejected. He explains his doubts and Haddek says that Sazed's quest to find a religion that requires no faith is fruitless since no such religion exists. Haddek explains that their God is Preservation, not the Lord Ruler, and he tells of the gods being forces spread throughout the world, and that Preservation gave of himself to men more than Ruin did, and that Ruin would be coming for his body, which was gathered by the kandra. Sazed uses pewter to uncover a pit with a large amount of atium, referred to as the Trust. The kandra describe how the atium was moved around the empire in secret even from the inquisitors, to keep this knowledge secret from Ruin.
TenSoon finds a large river of lava blocking his path to Fadrex, and feels despair that he won't be able to reach his destination in time due to the required detour.
