=== Chapter 17 ===
Wayne and Wax wait around while the governor has a meeting with city officials. Wax shows him a bit of the Marksman's mask that Bleeder was wearing. She was probably him all along, goading the slum people into disliking Wax and the establishment even more. Wayne will stay to help protect the governor with help from MeLaan, who is changing into a female guard that just died in the attack. Wax shows her the glowing substance that he collected, and MeLaan recognizes it as perchwither, which means that she's been in the [[Kandra Homeland|Homeland]], something that disturbs MeLaan because it is a holy place. Wax wants to go there to check if she's there, and Harmony gives permission (through MeLaan). A message arrives with a carriage: Wax's uncle has arrived.
Wax has found his uncle through the notebook he stole;{{book ref|mb4|epilogue}} he left a message in one his safe deposit boxes. Wax enters the carriage and they start moving. Edwarn compares what he's doing with the Set to Kelsier's crew and posits that Wax would be on the Lord Ruler's side. Wax puts this aside and asks for help against a common enemy -- his uncle wants to rule, but Paalm wants everything destroyed. Edwarn would like Paalm taken down, but he's taking a wait and see approach and will not help Wax. He insists that the Set will be hailed as heroes against oppression and promises that Wax's sister will die if he does. Wax promises to take care of Bleeder and then come after him.
