=== Other Uses ===
*'''Lightweaving''': In order to [[Surgebinding#Illumination|Lightweave]] properly, a strong spiritual component requiring a certain measure of Connection and a full mental picture of the desired illusion is necessary.{{book ref|sa2|part=ars}}
*'''Allomantic Malatium''': Flaring [[malatium]] allows an [[Allomancer]] to see not just a malatium shadow of a person, but seems to give them a glimpse into the Spiritual Realm, allowing them to see a vision of a past event in another person's life by seeing their Connection and their past. Given the only circumstance in which this effect is seen, it may be a result of flaring malatium at the moment of death and transition to the [[Cognitive Realm]], rather than a result of simply flaring the metal in and of itself.{{msh ref|1|1}}
 
*'''Allomantic Lerasium''': For normal people, burning [[lerasium]] forges a permanent Connection between them and [[Preservation]], turning them into a very powerful [[Allomancy|Mistborn]] by rewriting their spiritual DNA.{{wob ref|10116}} For people who are already Mistborn, the same effect increases their power.{{wob ref|1304}}
