Difference between revisions of "God Metal"

[[Ettmetal|Harmonium]] is the God Metal corresponding to the Shard [[Harmony]]. Called "ettmetal" in their native tongue, the Southern Scadrians use it to power their technology. Harmonium burns "with a pure whiteness"{{book ref|mb6|22}} when used in Southern Scadrian machinery, and explodes when it is exposed to water (similar to the [[Wikipedia: Alkali metal|alkali metals]]) making it dangerous if not impossible to ingest for Allomantic purposes. Unlike alkali metal reactions, this reaction does not yield a "Harmonium oxide," but it will yield "something else relevant to the [[cosmere]]." This is probably the small fragments of Lerasuim and Atium that remains in the aftermath of the Harmonium and Trellium reaction. Harmonium's atomic structure is that of a single element, rather than a compound or alloy.{{wob ref|1663}}
