Elend announces his devotion to the Survivor and appeals for the votes of the Assembly. He notices that Vin is alert, and a man suddenly attacks Elend but he holds off the attacker by instinct. Vin arrives to help Elend fight off a half dozen allomancers who are trying to kill him and Cett. Vin's ability to fight is constricted by her reluctance to allow bystanders in the crowd to be harmed by flying coins, and she is severely injured though she manages to kill all the enemies with assistance from OreSeur. She sees that Elend is horrified by how brutally she kills the last foe, but falls unconscious as her pewter drains out.
Elend states how he didn't know how disturbing seeing Vin fight could be. Elend and Hammond agree that the assassins were sent by Straff. Elend is informed by a messenger that the Assembly reconvened at
In the first round of voting, Penrod receives fifteen votes, Elend seven votes and Cett two votes. Lord [[Habren]] asks for permission to change his vote, and Elend reveals that it is allowed as long as the results haven't been announced. Habren changes his vote to Penrod, so it can count for something, as does Lord [[Hue]], and Penrod is elected king with a two thirds majority. Elend concedes.
