Difference between revisions of "Siege of Luthadel"

The armies of [[Straff Venture]], [[Ashweather Cett]] and the [[Koloss]] army of [[Jastes Lekal]] besieged [[Luthadel]] King [[Elend Venture]]'s throne. Originally, Straff Venture's numerically superior force was poised to take control of the city, leading to some diplomatic overtures between Cett and Elend in response. However, this balance was upset by the entry of the Koloss army, with the potential to defeat any of the human armies present. Elend was deposed and the city raised [[Ferson Penrod]] to be king. [[Vin]] intimidated the opposition through the use of duralumin-enhanced emotional allomancy upon Venture and an assault upon Cett's force within Luthadel's walls. However, Vin's apparent need to seek the Well of Ascension and save Scadrial from the Deepness led her to leave the city, accompanied by Elend and Spook, on a journey to Terris before the battle for the city began.

 

 

Upon realising that the well was in Luthadel and that she, Elend and Spook were sent away for their own safety, Vin returned to the city and took control of the [[Koloss]] using emotional Allomancy. Her swift execution of Straff Venture and her control over the Koloss army allowed Elend to retake control of Luthadel and be crowned Emperor of the New Empire.
