If I told you that, I'd have to kill you

Anyway, HoA, we'll now have to include VegasDev in our evil plot. Looks like we'll have to find some more atium to pay our assassin.

And writing unhidden hidden messages is strangely amusing.  ;D

Speaking of atium payments (not that anyone was, visibly), does anyone have a theory on why kandra contracts are paid in atium?  They can't use Allomancy.  Is it simply a form of currency to them, separate from TLR's coinage to indicate their independence from his rule?  Or do they use it, somehow, in hemalurgy?  I don't know of any other connections between kandra and metals of any kind - I don't think we've heard about spikes or nails in reference to them.  Perhaps they melt down the atium they receive and make spikes of some kind with them?

The third book will give you some info on why Kandra take atium as payment. ;) So just hang in there!

Well, I was assuming it would.  I mainly posed the question to see if anyone (who hasn't read MB3) had any theories.

I guess, though, that you've at least confirmed that my observation about kandra taking atium is something important! :)

Ahh, but did she?

Really, this isn't actually an important post, but a test to see if HoA figures out that there is hidden text here at the bottom, and if anyone else figures it out. So, HoA, I am now officially outlining our plan to make sure it is clear. First, we pay a time-traveling mistborn a ridiculously large amount of money to steal the Lord Ruler's Atium. Then, we use the massive atium cache to hire him to assassinate VegasDev and Qarlin, as well as several other unnamed contributors to this forum. Then we use the remainder of the cache to hire a master hacker to discover their forum passwords, and then we impersonate them online for the fun of it? Or was it that we hire a master hacker to write a program that will occasionally post things for them so that no one is suspicious of our evil plan? If so, it should definitely post things that are relevant to the conversation, such as why don't you ask Brandon, and I hate you, and cheese is delicious. Just my thoughts on the matter.

Would this be the same time-travelling Mistborn you and SarahG sent to kill me?  You see how well that worked out. :P

Obviously not, darx. We assassinated that time traveling mistborn with this one. Besides, who's to say that we sent him already? He is time-traveling, after all.

Well, it would have been worse if the plan I specified had actually been inside the quote box.  ;)
