During the last days of the Final Empire, a skaa crewleader named [[Camon]] tried to scam this Canton. The goal of the scam was to rob a convoy of Ministry funds, which would've had atium hidden inside. During the operation, one of his crewmembers, [[Vin]], unknowingly revealed herself as a Misting, and later a full Mistborn. This was the event that led [[Kelsier]] to recruit Vin to his crew. High Prelan Arriev's discovery of Vin's Allomantic abilities foiled the scam, which kept [[Ruin]] from discovering the atium cache, keeping him at bay for a few more years.{{wob ref|8027}}
In the year 1022, the Ministry was presided over by Lord Prelan [[Tevidian]]. The Canton of Orthodoxy was then the presiding Canton, but members of the Canton of Inquisition captured [[Vin]] and proved that she was the Lord Prelan's half-breed daughter. The Lord Ruler restructured the Ministry by giving control of the Ministry to the Canton of Inquisition.{{book ref|mb1|36}}
