She finds the Well of Ascension beneath Kredik Shaw in the aftermath of the battle. Once they enter the Well's chamber, the [[Preservation|mist spirit]] attacks Elend -- it'sits hand forced by Kelsier -- fatally stabbing him in the hope that Vin would use the power to save him. Despite Preservation's best attempts to prepare Vin to take up the power, and Kelsier's attempt force her to use it, Vin enters the Well and, encouraged by Ruin's tricks, gives up the power in the belief that it is the best choice, thus inadvertently releasing [[Ruin]] from his prison as he had been manipulating her to do. Preservation shows Vin the final bead of [[lerasium]] in the chamber in order to allow her to save Elend by feeding him the bead and transforming him into a Mistborn.{{book ref|mb2|58}}{{book ref|mb2|epilogue}}{{msh ref|2|3}}
