The '''Pits of Hathsin''' are a system of caves near [[Luthadel]] on [[Scadrial]] in which [[Atium]] crystals grow.
It is also a [[skaa]] labor camp the [[Lord Ruler]] set up to mine Atium crystals. It serves the dual purpose of punishing skaa criminals and concealing the location of the Atium mines, as the prisoners cannot leave.
[[Allomancy]] cannot be used to retrieve the crystals, because an Ironpull would cause them to shatter, so the imprisoned skaa have to mine it by hand.
All skaa in the Pits have small scratches along their arms from the jagged crystals. The Pits are overseen by [[House Venture]]. Each skaa must find an atium geode every week; if they fail, they are beaten to death savagely.▼
