== Chapter 1 ==
{{icon|iron|m|70px|center}}
{{epigraph|I consider myself to be a man of principle. But, what man does not? Even the cutthroat, I have noticed, considers his actions "moral" after a fashion.<br><br>
I guess it all comes down to one fact: In the end, I’m the one with the armies.}}
;Characters: [[Vin]], [[Ulef]], [[Camon]], [[Theron]], Prelan [[Laird]]
;Summary
Vin introduced, summoned to Camon by Ulef.
Camon pretends to be Lord Jedue, head of a house desperately looking for new contracts; this is a cover, an attempt to scam the [[Steel Ministry]] out of money.
Vin [[Brass|Soothes]] the obligator Prelan Laird so he won’t dismiss Camon's pleas.
;Notes
Lord Tresting's first name mentioned: Themos.
== Chapter 2 ==
{{icon|steel|m|70px|center}}
{{epigraph|If men read these words, let them know that power is a heavy burden. Seek not to be bound by its chains. The [[Terris]] [[Terris Prophecies|prophecies]] say that I will have the power to save the world.<br><br>
They hint, however, that I will have the power to destroy it as well.}}
;Characters: [[Kelsier]], [[Dockson]], [[Vin]], [[Camon]], High Prelan [[Arriev]]
;Summary
Kelsier meets up with Dockson, they talk about their upcoming meeting.
Camon, as Lord Jedue, takes Vin to scam the [[Steel Ministry|Ministry]]; Kelsier and Dockson sit in the waiting room with Camon and Vin; Vin [[Brass|Soothes]] the High Prelan, and he gives Camon three thousand boxings.
Kelsier and Dockson see the High Prelan and a [[Steel Inquisitor]] tail Camon, Vin, and the rest of Camon’s retinue.
Dockson plans to distract the [[obligator]], while Kelsier plans to distract the [[Bendal|Inquisitor]].
== Chapter 3 ==
{{icon|tin|m|70px|center}}
{{epigraph|We arrived in [[Terris]] earlier this week, and, I have to say, I find the countryside beautiful. The great mountains to the north - with their bald snowcaps and forested mantles - stand like watchful gods over this land of green fertility. My own [[Khlennium|lands]] to the south are mostly flat; I think that they might look less dreary if there were a few mountains to vary the terrain.<br><br>
The people here are mostly herdsmen - though timber harvesters and farmers are not uncommon. It is a pastoral land, certainly. It seems odd that a place so remarkably agrarian could have produced the [[Terris Prophecies|prophecies]] and theologies upon which the entire world now relies.}}
;Characters: [[Camon]], [[Vin]], [[Ulef]], [[Kelsier]], [[Dockson]], [[Millev]]
;Summary
Vin's nervousness about the meeting with the [[obligator]] causes her to want to leave Camon's lair.
She tells Ulef, whom she wants to bring along, but he tells Camon while she retrieves her personal effects (including the [[hemalurgy|hemalurgic]] earring her mother gave her).
Kelsier saves Vin, promotes Millev to [[Crew]]leader, takes the three thousand boxings as payment for dealing with the obligator and [[Steel Inquisitor|Inquisitor]], and rents the den for the evening meeting.
Millev's crew leaves for a while so Kelsier can test Vin for being a [[Mistborn]].
;Notes
Vin subconsciously burns [[pewter]] after Camon hits her with a thrown stool.
== Chapter 4 ==
{{icon|pewter|m|70px|center}}
{{epigraph|Apparently, the next stage of my quest will take us up into the highlands of [[Terris]]. This is said to be a cold, unforgiving place - a land where the mountains themselves are made of ice.<br><br>
Our normal attendants will not do for such a trip. We should probably hire some Terris packmen to carry our gear.}}
;Characters: [[Ulef]], Disten (a head pointman in <del>Camon’s</del>[[Millev]]’s crew), [[Vin]], Harmon (a scraggly-bearded burglar), Hrud (a flat-faced, quiet thug), [[Hammond]], [[Breeze]], [[Clubs]], [[Yeden]], [[Kelsier]], [[Dockson]]
;Summary
Kelsier and Dockson had left for a while, letting the crew return for a bit. The crew talks about what happened, speculating on the job. At a certain time, the crew leaves and the others arrive. Kelsier pitches his plan regarding the [[skaa rebellion]]. Kelsier’s crew agrees, (except for Clubs, who walks out). Kelsier reveals to the others that Vin is a [[Mistborn]], then tells them about and shows them the [[Eleventh Metal]].
;Notes
[[Mare]] mentioned by thieving crew, but not by name.
== Chapter 5 ==
{{icon|zinc|m|70px|center}}
{{epigraph|I don’t even understand what I’m supposed to do. The [[Terris]] philosophers claim that I’ll know my duty when the time comes, but that’s a small comfort.<br><br>
The [[Deepness]] must be destroyed, and apparently I’m the only one who can do so. It ravages the world even now. If I don’t stop it soon, there will be nothing left of this land but bones and dust.}}
;Characters
[[Kelsier]], [[Dockson]], [[Vin]], [[Clubs]], [[Spook]]
;Summary
Small talk after the meeting; [[Hammond]], [[Breeze]], [[Yeden]] have left. Clubs returns, agrees to be on the team, leaves again. Kelsier, Dockson, and Vin head to rooftop. Kelsier gears up, heads off to [[Keep Venture]] to steal [[atium]]. Kelsier breaks in, gets the safe with the atium, and then has to fight some [[hazekiller]]s. Kelsier escapes with the desired atium.
;Notes
First mention of [[OreSeur]] by name. Spook isn’t identified at all. [[Mare]] mentioned as a [[Tin]]eye. First mention of [[Gemmel]]. First mention of [[feruchemist]]s (but not by name) as Kelsier remembers some of Gemmel’s advice.
== Chapter 6 ==
{{icon|brass|m|70px|center}}
{{epigraph|I never wanted this, true. But somebody has to stop the [[Deepness]]. And, apparently, [[Terris]] is the only place this can be done.<br><br>
On this fact, however, I don’t have to take the word of the philosophers. I can feel [[Well of Ascension|our goal]] now, sense it, though the others cannot. It... [[Bronze#Allomantic_Use|pulses]], in my mind, far off in the mountains.}}
;Characters
[[Vin]], [[Dockson]], [[Clubs]], [[Hammond]], [[Spook]], [[Kelsier]], [[Breeze]], [[Yeden]], [[Marsh]]
;Summary
Vin wakes up in a room in Clubs’ shop the following morning. Vin starts to notice the differences between thieving crews and families. Kelsier et al. plot out the job: the destruction of the [[Final Empire]]. Marsh eventually arrives, and everyone leaves so he and Kelsier can talk alone. Vin returns to eavesdrop outside the door.
;Notes
Spook’s first dialogue.
[[Skaa rebellion]] caves named: [[Arguois caverns]]; Kelsier estimates they could hold ten thousand people.
[[Fellise]], location of Lord [[Renoux]]’s estate, mentioned to be an hour outside of [[Luthadel]].
Spook named by Clubs’ as his nephew; Spook identifies himself as Lestibournes, speaking in Eastern street slang.
== Chapter 7 ==
{{icon|copper|m|70px|center}}
{{epigraph|[[Rashek]] is a tall man - of course, most of these [[Terrisman|Terrismen]] are tall. He is young to receive so much respect from the other packmen. He has charisma, and the women of court would probably describe him as handsome, in a rugged sort of way.<br><br>
Yet, it amazes me that anyone would give heed to a man that speaks such hatred. He has never seen [[Khlennium]], yet he curses the city. He does not know me, yet I can already see the anger and hostility in his eyes.}}
;Characters
[[Kelsier]], [[Marsh]], [[Vin]], [[Dockson]], [[Breeze]], [[Hammond]], [[Clubs]]
;Summary
Marsh and Kelsier talk and argue about old times, not talking about the details of the job. Kelsier convinces Marsh to come back again to listen to the job. As Marsh moves to leave, Kelsier notices Vin eavesdropping. Kelsier takes Vin out for her first night of training, giving Vin her [[Mistcloak]]. Kelsier teaches her about the [[Allomancy|eight basic metals]], ending the chapter with them at the [[Luthadel]] city wall.
;Notes
First mention of odd things happening when an Allomancer [[Allomancy#Allomantic_savants|flares metals for too long]].
== Chapter 8 ==
{{icon|bronze|m|70px|center}}
{{epigraph|"[[Hero of Ages|He]] shall defend [[Terris|their]] ways, yet shall violate them. He will be their savior; yet they shall call him heretic. His name shall be Discord, yet they shall love him for it.”}}
;Characters
[[Vin]], [[Kelsier]], [[Sazed]], [[Renoux]]
;Summary
Vin and Kelsier go over the [[Luthadel]] walls, walking out into the night wilderness. Vin notices something following them, and Kelsier shows her that it was a [[mistwraith]]. Kelsier takes her to the main road where they meed up with Sazed, waiting for them with a carriage. He takes them to [[Fellise]]. On the way, Kelsier offers Vin the three thousand boxings and to let her leave the crew if she doesn’t believe that he's being honest with her. She takes the boxings but remains on the crew because she wants to see how things turn out. They arrive at Lord Renoux’s estate, and Kelsier and Renoux talk in private briefly. Vin and Sazed talk briefly, with Sazed offering to tell Vin about some of the religions of the past, without using those words. Renoux suggests that Vin can play the part of a daughter of favored cousins to Renoux, and that he is introducing her to the other noble houses as a ploy to strengthen House Renoux.
;Notes
Kelsier recollects that [[Gemmel]] had to push him off the wall when he was being trained.
