Just pondering another question I was recently thinking of. So apparently if you consider the breakdown of "realms" in Mistborn there seems to be 3 major ones, the physical, the conscious, and the beyond. So most of the characters exist in the physical with their physical bodies etc. Now Vin and Sazed (and I assume Leras and Ati) lost their physical forms when they transcended into the realm of consciousness, where it appears these "minor" gods reside (like Sazed in the end), and when their power is used up or destroyed, their corporeal body re-manifests itself in the physical realm. Now my question is, I believe according to an answer Brandon gave earlier, that Sazed cant actually communicate with the beyond, hence why he cant talk to Tindwyl, so why are Kelsier, Vin, and Elend hanging around in the conscious realm, because for Sazed to be able to communicate with them, one would assume that is where they have to be, based on this "sazed cant reach the beyond" idea. And if they chose to hang out in this region, can they choose to move on to the beyond? Because it seems if Sazed cannot reach there with these "god-like" powers, how could the others, unless the power is what would actually prevent Sazed from reaching that realm. Thoughts?
