{{epigraph|I know your argument. We speak of the Anticipation, of things foretold, of promises made by our greatest prophets of old. Of course the Hero of Ages will fit the prophecies. He will fit them perfectly. That's the idea.}}
 
'''Point of View: Straff
 
Straff berates Zane for failing to kill Cett and Elend and for costing the lives of six of his half-breed allomancer children. Straff is also distraught that Vin survived, and that Zane is a madman.
 
Straff meets with King Penrod and gives him assurances in exchange for Penrod turning over control of the city. Straff also offers to let Penrod rule in Luthadel in exchange for the missing atium stores. Straff is hesitant to move into the city since he fears that Vin will go after him.
 
As they return to the camp, Zane reveals that he poisoned Straff. Amaranta administers a healing potion in time and Straff decides that Zane must die.
