=== Chapter 1 ===

Kelsier asks Preservation about the [[Ire]]. They are from another land, who have died, but have not. They have built a city "in a place between worlds." Preservation gazes into Kelsier's eyes, giving him a vision of godhood and the future. He senses that his Connection to Ruin is much stronger than that to Preservation. In no possible future does he defeat Ruin, but he does sense some chance of Vin winning if he goes west. Preservation insists that the Ire won't help, but Kelsier doesn't plan on asking.

=== Chapter 1 ===

Kelsier finally reaches the ocean after traveling for weeks. He's collected several things along the way. Objects with a strong Identity persist better in the cognitive realm. He calls out for Preservation, but there's still no response. Instead, [[Ati]] shows up and starts monologuing on how the world's doom is inevitable and natural. He tells him that the end is very near and that he can't do any good out here, which leads Kelsier to conclude that the opposite is true. Kelsier continues on, and Ruin taunts him, trying to break his will.

=== Chapter 1 ===

Kelsier decides that stealing the orb from the vault would be too risky and difficult, so he merely waits until they come out with it. After about a week, the Ire and some guards leave the fortress on horseback. Kelsier stalks them. Every night they stop and make camp, drinking something that restores the glow to their skin. Kelsier spooks Alonoe by pretending to be Ruin. He continues to terrorize them as they press on, convinced that since "Ruin" can only threaten them, he can't stop them. He causes full out panic when he slices the leg of a horse with Nazh's knife and creates a Ruin puppet from a flaming cloak. Alonoe gets separated from the main group, and he fakes her death by wearing a robe from the fortress and "melting" into the ground, causing the main group to head home. He knocks out the guard with Alonoe and whispers from the shadows to leave the orb. She's terrified and complies. He orders her to walk back to the castle.
