During his encounters with the Deepness, he Snapped and his Allomantic powers were awakened.{{wob ref|8087}} He believed that he had sensed the Deepness' mind, and noted that it was not hateful, but would destroy the world as part of its nature. After Alendi spent a decade leading armies, the Terris Worldbringers decided that Alendi, the assumed Hero of Ages, should set forth to the Well of Ascension{{epigraph ref|mb2|9}} and give up its power in the name of the greater good.{{epigraph ref|mb2|50}} However, Kwaan realised that some being deceived them all by altering the prophecies, but he couldn't convince Alendi and the other Worldbringers{{epigraph ref|mb2|55}} that the power at the Well should not be released.{{epigraph ref|mb2|59}} Soon Alendi departed towards the Well of Ascension, giving no heed to Kwaan's warning since Alendi surrounded himself with other counselors who told him what he wanted to hear.{{epigraph ref|mb2|52}}
 
Upon arriving in Terris, Alendi replaced his normal attendants with Terris packmen who could carry his gear in the cold unforgiving mountains.{{epigraph ref|mb1|4}} They were a group of [[Feruchemy|Feruchemists]] led by [[Rashek]].{{epigraph ref|mb1|7}} Alendi started keeping a [[Alendi's logbook|logbook]],{{book ref|mb2|42}} in which he alsorecorded his quest for the Well, describeddescribing hearing pulses coming from the Well{{epigraph ref|mb1|23}} due to his abilities as a [[Seeker]].{{epigraph ref|mb3|62}} In this journal he also expressed regrets about the death and fear he has caused {{expandepigraph ref|mb1|25}}{{epigraph ref|mb1|34}}, doubts about his own sanity{{epigraph ref|mb1|14}}, but also his fear of the Deepness {{epigraph ref|mb1|22}}, and his faith that it needed to be defeated {{epigraph ref|mb1|28}}.
 
Unbeknownst to Alendi, Kwaan had instructed Rashek to do everything in his power to keep Alendi away from the Well of Ascension,{{epigraph ref|mb2|55}} and if necessary even to kill Alendi to prevent him from giving up the Well's power.{{epigraph ref|mb2|55}} Since the pulses coming from the Well drew Alendi closer with each beat,{{epigraph ref|mb1|23}} Rashek could not lead him astray and was forced to kill the King of Khlennium shortly before arriving at their destination.
 
== Legacy ==
Alendi's logbook was kept by Rashek and, over a thousand years later, was found by [[Vin]] in [[Kredik Shaw]]{{book ref|mb1|14}}. It was translated by [[Sazed]] as part of the efforts of [[Kelsier's crew]] to discover the Lord Ruler's weaknesses.
