===Death===

During the siege of [[Fadrex City]], Leras appeared to Elend as the mist spirit, giving Elend important information pertaining to what needed to be done to thwart Ruin. This exposed Leras to Ruin's newly released power, and in his weakened state, he was killed by Ruin. His body then coalesced from the mists, before being buried in ash. Kelsier then takes up the power of Preservation, who then gives it to Vin. She then kills [[Ati]], the vessel of Ruin, in a suicidal attack, completely against the intent to preserve. It's both because she had a bit of Ruin in her and because Preservation had less time to mold her to its Intent. This allowed [[Sazed]] to pick up both Shards to become [[Harmony]].

 

Sazed later saw that Preservation had orchestrated the entire plot from Ruin's imprisonment to Vin and Ruin's mutual annihilation, saving the world.

== God Metal ==

The god metal of Preservation: the name [[lerasium]] is inherited from Leras, the name of the original holder of the Shard Preservation, just as the name [[atium]] is inherited from [[Ati]], the original holder of the Shard [[Ruin]]. When burned, [[lerasium]] endows the user with allomantic powers, with power proportionate on the amount consumed.{{wob ref|341}}
