Elend and Vin sent him to Urteau to gather as much information as he could about the Citizen and his government there. {{book ref|mb3|14}}
He was a very good at sneaking into the Citizen’s house, where he went not only to listen to important information of the city, confirming the [[Quellion]]’s (the Citizen) ideology and concerns on Elend as tyrant; but to watch his sister [[Beldre]]. Spook liked her for her beauty and her sadness. {{book ref|mb3|14}} He becomes so sensitive to light that he has to wear a blind fold; however, his other sharpened senses are able to make up for the inconvenience. {{book ref|mb3|16}}
He scouted the city and understood the mood of the people. He was horrified with the killings of not only nobles but their descendants and all other inhuman practices in the City. Spook hired a thief lord [[Durn]] who helped him get some news from the City, he took him to the execution of 10 skaa with noble blood but asked him to count the skulls. During the speech after the execution, Spook got infuriated and when he got close to [[Beldre]] he spoke to her, fist asking if she agreed with the executions, later letting her know he was the man who would kill his brother. He was so into the conversation he failed to notice he was exposed and [[Quellion]]´s men went after him. He understood they were Allomancers when they used their power and he lost the fight. {{book ref|mb3|16}} ▼

During the fight, Spook was stabbed with a sword that also pierced a [[pewter]]arm. The tip of the sword became a [[Hemalurgy|Hemalurgic]] spike and granted him the ability to burn [[pewter]]. The spike also gave Ruin access to Spook and got into his mind using [[Kelsier]]´s voice. So when he wakes up from the lost fight inside the burning building and hears Kelsier asking him to move on, find vials and burn pewter, he obeys, thus finding his new ability (which he doesn’t recognize as Hemalurgy) and thus trusting the voice in his head.{{book ref|mb3|16}}{{book ref|mb3|26}}
Spook receives [[Breeze]], [[Allrianne]] and [[Sazed]] into the city and helps them hide providing them with intel. He shows them the cave where the Lord Ruler’s cache was and suggested it as their base. {{book ref|mb3|29}} He tried to talk to Sazed about Kelsier’s voice but with Sazed doubting his beliefs, Spook didn’t fully confide and just trusted they were being protected by the Survivor. {{book ref|mb3|31}}
Ever since his unexpected survival from the flames, Spook had heard people gossiping of him and that he was part of Kelsier’s crew and that Durn was behind of it. He eventually decided to confront him and found that Durn had been plotting against Quellion and had used the event to make him look bad. He decides to trust him and asks him to find Breeze. On his way out, a man approaches him and asked to save his 7-year-old sister from the Citizen. Spook realizes he is now in a better position to make a difference and decides to help. {{book ref|mb3|35}} He asked in return for ten men to help him dig the skulls from the fire where the Citizen had burned the prisoners days before. He found only nine skulls and understood Quellion was taking the Allomancers. {{book ref|mb3|38}}
He bribed people to find the place where the executions will take place. Another noble building and he understood it was built with passages like others used to take the Allomancers out. He went in to save the people and under Ruin’s influence killed the soldiers. One of them though took the child as hostage, causing Spook to ask the leaving prisoners to lock him down. Though he was able to beat the remaining soldier, even with Pewter he was unable to open the door. Thus, he had to jump out of the building, still in flames with he child in his arms. Breeze and his other friends were there and caused a riot to help him escape. {{book ref|mb3|41}}
He convinces Sazed to reverse engineer the lake built by the Lord Ruler so he can bring a miracle into the city. Along with him surviving the flames, he expects to outcast Quellion and cause the people to rebel against him. {{book ref|mb3|46}}
Because he liked Beldre, he went to see her again, asked her to join him, but she refused and started screaming. Later, she went to their place and spoke on her brother’s behalf. Under Ruin’s influence with Kelsier’s voice, Spook takes her captive spreading the rumor she had escaped her brother. He is looking for Quellion to attack. {{book ref|mb3|49}} They both have another conversation later, where she confirms her brother used to be a good man corrupted by power and Spook is bothered by the conversation, still with the encouragement of Ruin, he accepts the tile of Survivor of the Fire and is happy with the attention. {{book ref|mb3|53}}
