=== The release of Ruin ===
A thousand years later, after [[Kelsier]] was killed by [[Rashek]] -- now knowknown as the Lord Ruler -- he found himself in the [[Cognitive Realm]] and face to face with an apparition of Leras. After promptly punching it in the face, Kelsier tricked Preservation into revealing how to become a [[Cognitive Shadow]], and was subsequently trapped in the [[Well of Ascension]] as it began to overflow once more.{{msh ref|1|1}}
 
Both Preservation and Ruin picked [[Vin]] as one of its unwitting agents many centuries prior, though Ruin attempted to stifle Preservation's influence by piercing child Vin with a [[Hemalurgic]] spike at birth. The first sign of [[Vin]]'s connection to Preservation was when she attempted to fight the Lord Ruler and drew on the mist to fuel her [[Allomancy]].{{book ref|mb1|38}} A year later, she began to hear the beat of the Well as it called for someone to once more take up the power. At the time, Preservation's mist spirit began to appear to her on multiple occassions as Leras was looking for a way to stop her from releasing the power.{{book ref|mb2|47}}
