Difference between revisions of "Well of Ascension"

In [[Terris]] prophecy, it was said to be hidden deep within the Terris Mountains,. howeverHowever, when the [[Lord Ruler]] consumed the power from the Well of Ascension and changed the world, he also changed the location of the Well. The Well was moved to where [[Kredik Shaw]] now stands, and lay in a chamber underneath the Lord Ruler's palace.

Before [[Vin]] released the power within the Well, it served as a prison for the [[Shard]] Ruin for what appears to be several millennia. Preservation created the prison by sacrificing his mind to create something capable of containing Ruin's mind. With his mind gone, Preservation's body and power were left in the world, creating the Mists and the Well of Ascension.
