(→‎After the Final Ascension: Removed an section that only had a WoB and no support in-book, the WoB was old and years before he wrote Era 2, so it likely was changed.)
== Composition ==
The '''mist''' is a gaseous manifestation of [[Preservation]]'s power similar to both the liquid in the [[Well of Ascension]] and the beads of [[lerasium]].{{wob ref|10139}} The mist is far less dense than Preservation's liquid form, and as such is more limited in what can be done with it. Where Preservation's liquid form can be used to do great things, from moving planets to changing or creating living creatures, the mist seems to only be able to function incidentally as fuel for [[Allomancy]], albeit unusually powerful fuel.
 
There also exists a '''black mist''' which is a gaseous manifestation of [[Ruin]]'s power. It is much less prominent than Preservation's mist, only being seen near the Well of Ascension as it reached capacity, and around Ruin's Vessel.{{msh ref|6|1}}{{msh ref|6|5}}{{msh ref|3|3}}{{book ref|mb3|81}}{{epigraph ref|mb3|14}}
