The impossible has been accomplished. The Lord Ruler, the immortal tyrant who enslaved the world for a thousand years, is dead. But victory has not brought peace. In the capital city of Luthadel, the idealist Elend Venture struggles to build a new society, while the former street urchin Vin, now the most powerful Mistborn in the land, finds herself protecting him from hidden assassins and revered as a religious figure. As they navigate the treacherous world of politics and intrigue, a new, more tangible threat emerges. Three armies, including one of monstrous koloss, have laid siege to Luthadel, each seeking to claim the city for itself.

With resources dwindling and the city on the brink of collapse, an ancient legend offers a sliver of hope: the Well of Ascension, a mythical source of immense power. But no one knows where it is, what it does, or if it even exists. At the same time, the mists that have long defined their world are behaving strangely, and a mysterious entity seems to stalk Vin from within them. The crew that overthrew an empire must now learn to govern, battling not just armies at their gates, but the secrets of the past and the very nature of their world to survive.
