Remember, Sazed says in the original language, the him/her is gender nuetral, thus it would more likely read, "No man/woman shall claim him/her,"  thus it can't Refer to Vin, as she has been claimed by Elend

This made me laugh. A lot. Mostly because of my earlier thoughts on this thread.

"No man/woman shall keep him/her"

Thus, possibilities are:

No man shall keep her

No man shall keep him

No woman shall keep him

No woman shall keep her.

Good job happyman, exactly my thoughts, I also don't think Ruin was necessarily aware of all these texts, and only discovered some of them as the people who he was watching discovered them, and thus could not change them until it was too late.

Here's a thought, how did Kwaan know that words set in metal would be safe from Ruin?

That's a good question right there. I would think that because Ruin could affect the metalminds and writings it would be able to change what's in metal. Also, I brought this up on a different thread, how come Ruin has such a clear affect on Hemalurgy and Feruchemy yet seems to have no influence whatsoever over Allomancers? Could Feruchemy and Hemalurgy both be of Ruin?

We're getting off topic here, should I start a, "Who is the hero of Ages," thread?

See what I said here.

The topic of who the Hero of Ages is is covered a lot in this thread.
