The '''siege of Luthadel''' was a major event following the end of the [[Final Empire]] on [[Scadrial]].{{book ref|mb2|16}}
 
The armies of [[Straff Venture]], [[Ashweather Cett]], and the [[Koloss]] army of [[Jastes Lekal]] besiegebesieged [[Luthadel]] and, King [[Elend Venture]]'s throne. Originally, Straff Venture's numerically superior force was poised to take control of the city, leading to some diplomatic overtures between Cett and Elend in response. However, this balance was upset by the entry of the Koloss army, with the potential to defeat any of the human armies present.

The [[Battle of Luthadel]] was triggered by the lack of control that Lekal held over his Koloss force, who attacked the city of their own accord. The Koloss force successfully breached the city walls, which, punctuated by so many gates, were difficult for the defenders to hold. During this assault, [[Dockson]], [[Clubs]] and [[Tindwyl]] were all killed by the Koloss.

Upon realising that the well was in Luthadel and that she, Elend and Spook were sent away for their own safety, Vin returned to the city and took control of the [[Koloss]] using emotional Allomancy. Her swift execution of Straff Venture and her control over the Koloss army allowed Elend to retake control of Luthadel and be crowned Emperor of the [[New Empire]].
