hey little wilson is on ur side. he set raoden to win the whole thing.
i think the problem is that we've had WAY less experience with aons in combat than allomancy. for me at least, it is hard to imagine exactly what Raoden would do in these fights. i do have to argue the "little time to draw" point you made though.  while a few of the Aons are pretty straight forward, most are more intricate. personally, i would take at least 30 seconds to draw most of them... and then u have to draw the modifiers, all of this without messing up. i don't know. that's kinda my reasoning for not going with raoden.

your argument brings up an interesting point, bookworm. According to Scadriel's mythology Ruin and Preservation created this world and it's people. But what of Leras and Ati? where did they come from? they are simply humans bound to these shards. so were there people on Scadriel before they became Ruin and Preservation? or were the shards moved to scadriel from some other place where ati and leras are from?

someone on here has already raised the question as to whether there is sone kind of connection between Ati in Mistborn and there being an Ati Aon. maybe Ati came to scadriel from the elantris world after gaining the shard somehow, and thats the connection. or maybe not. i don't know. odds are that mistborn and elantris are on different planets, i'm just raising questions.

but remember something else that Brandon said. that Ruin and Preservation are the only two shards on scadriel at this time. Shards can either move or be moved somehow. is it not possible that elantris is scadriel in the distant past and the shards have since been switched around somehow?

i'm reading through the mistborn ones right now. so far i've only found one possibility. there is a random nobleman who starts talking to Vin at one point and she thinks he's trying to hit on her and she scares him away. still looking...

so there is a chance (however small) that i could be right??

Here's my question. How would Ruin "get" the atium and what exactly would he do with it?  what did he have to do once he "got" it to gain its power?

yeah, thats what i was refering to Ookla. and like i said, it is most likely that this is just a reference to them being in the same universe, but i don't know. as far as i know we don't know the name of the elantris planet. although if Tage is under the impression that i'm way off, then i probably am.

I can just imagine them in expanding suits of armor, zooming into a fight, and kicking everyones trash.

I'm rather partial to the vision of bunkers beneath the earth, filled with row after row of beds. On each bed lies a silent emaciated body, blind, deaf, catatonic.

Waiting to be called to war.

Now that sounds awesome.

Alright, I am talking about the world on which the Mistborn series takes place.  Brandon has mentioned that in the course of the story we only get to see the North Pole area of the planet and that he purposefully didn't mention what was happening on the other side, the South.  Now Brandon has said while answering questions on twitter that a sequel to Elantris has already been written: Mistborn.  Now, it is most likely that this is simply a reference to the fact that all of Brandon's books are in the same universe, but I started wondering if it means Elantris and Mistborn take place in the same WORLD. Does Elantris take place on Scadriel?  It would be nice if someone took this question to Brandon on one of these forum thingies he's doing.
