:I think getting into how a person could possibly survive being spiked isn't really [[Help:Speculation|suited for the Coppermind]], but the way the paragraph was written wasn't really appropriate either, since we keep to an in-world tone (i.e., avoid making reference to out-of-world things like book titles), so I've [[Special:Diff/168507|reworded]] it in a way that also presents it as more of an unknown, which I think is more in keeping with how we generally handle things like this.

== Hemalurgic Chromium and Hemalurgic Bendalloy; Spiritual vs Temporal ==
 
Hello,
 
I am creating this topic, because i believe that Chromium and Bendalloy should be swapped on the hemalurgy text table. Currently, bendalloy - which steals spiritual feruchemical powers - is grouped in the temporal quadrant on the hemalurgy table. chromium - which "might steal destiny" - is currently grouped in the spiritual quadrant. Unless there is a confirmation from Brandon or Isaac, i propose that these two positions be switched
 
While i agree that "destiny" is indeed a quality that is probably predominantly manifested in the spiritual realm, but we cannot deny that it has larger temporal implications than spiritual ones. Destiny, as a real world concept, is about time. It takes time to reach your destiny, and it's something that's in the future. Realizing you've reached your destiny is only achieved upon analyzing your past and your present.
 
As for why bendalloy is a spiritual metal - well - it steal spiritual feruchemy. So, there you go.
 
Thoughts?
Kal.
