Template:Redirect The Hero of Ages was a prophesied saviour who would supposedly take the power of the Well of Ascension and use it to save the world.

Prophecy

"The Hero of Ages shall be not a man, but a force. No nation may claim him, no woman shall keep him, and no king may slay him. He shall belong to none, not even himself."
"He shall defend their ways, yet shall violate them. He will be their savior, yet they shall call him heretic. His name shall be Discord, yet they shall love him for it."
"That which has been sundered must again begin to find its whole"

Resolution

As seen in the end of The Hero of Ages the original prophecy referred to Sazed who assumed the role when he took the powers of both Ruin and Preservation.
