Difference between revisions of "Gemmel"

Only three months after Kelsier escaped from the [[Pits of Hathsin]], he and Gemmel visit [[Mantiz]] to infiltrate [[Keep Shezler]]. Along their way to the keep, they talk a little about Kelsier’s past, and all the while Gemmel keeps training his student, which includes attacking him. {{book ref|11m}}

Upon reaching the keep, Gemmel goes up the roof to have a better view, killing some guards along the way. When he has taken a good look around and Kelsier has caught up to him, Gemmel throws his pupil off the roof. Once down again, they walk across the keep's grounds to a building that looks like a groundskeeping shed, and Gemmel again kills a pair of guards, not caring that it might reveal the two of them. In the shed, they find a stairway down, and Gemmel waves Kelsier to go first. {{book ref|11m}}

In the basement, Kelsier starts sneaking through the room, but Gemmel comes in without any attempt at stealth. In the next room, they find half a dozen bound up [[skaa]] and Kelsier begins tending to them, but is interrupted when [[Antillius Shezler]], the keep’s [[Noble|nobleman]] and also a Mistborn, shouts and shoots a coin at him. Kelsier manages to kill Shezler without any help from Gemmel, who sees this as a training opportunity. When Kelsier returns to the skaa captives, Gemmel is leafing through one of Shezler’s notebooks containing theories and superstitions about an [[Malatium|Eleventh Metal]]. Kelsier takes this book before leaving, and Gemmel pockets a fork. {{book ref|11m}}
