The '''Hero of Ages''' was a prophesied savior who would supposedly take the power of the [[Well of Ascension]] and use it to save the world. The Hero of Ages was also called '''Rabzeen''' and the '''Anamnesor'''.{{epigraph ref|mb2|12}} [[Kwaan]] originally thought that The Hero of Ages was [[Alendi]] from [[Khlennium]]. He later realized that [[Ruin]] had been tampering with the prophecies and that he was wrong about Alendi being the Hero. He sent his nephew [[Rashek]] to stop Alendi from reaching the [[Well of Ascension]] and if necessary to kill him.{{epigraph ref|mb2|56}}
 
 
After the [[Collapse]] of the [[Final Empire]] it was thought that [[Vin]] was the Hero. This assumption later turned out to be incorrect, as it was actually [[Sazed]].
