    Lord Ruler, the one whom people in the Final Empire regarded as God, was dead, slain by Mistborn Vin. By overthrowing Lord Ruler, Kelsier’s crew hoped to create a better world for skaas. However, they were troubled by the increasing problem of providing enough food, for the mists were coming out not only at night but also during daylight, and also under siege of three armies.

With an imposter of a kandra somewhere within them, the story becomes even more complicated.
