[[folder:Keeping away Ironeyes]]

* How exactly does one scare away [[GrimReaper Ironeyes]]?
** You can't, but you can sell a lot of broadsheets by claiming you have a way, and I don't think Scadrial had any truth-in-advertising laws at this point.
** As well, Marsh is not about to go harming innocents, so there's no harm in making such claims.
** An extremely strong magnet is how.

[[folder:Twinborn]]

* Small question about Twinborn. Compounding works by storing the Feruchemical attribute in a metal (effectively creating a new metal that has that attribute) and then burning that metal to gain more of that attribute than they started with, yes? So , is it therefore possible to work in reverse? For example, could a steel Compounder burn steel, then store that power in a metalmind to draw upon later, or burn for an increased output loop of power?
** WordOfGod has indicated that yes, there is a way to enhance your allomancy with Compounding (and that the Lord Ruler knew and made use of it). Nothing about the specifics of the process.
*** Source?
*** I read it on 17th Shard (Sanderson's official fansite). I cannot remember the specific interview which was being quoted, unfortunately. It may have been from Sanderson's Reddit account- he's answered a lot of questions there.
*** Most likely this can be done by Nicrosil compounding -- Nicrosil feruchemy stores "Investiture," which is a term consistently used throughout the Cosmere to refer to power provided by the shards[[labelnote:*]] And the protagonist of the next trilogy is apparently going to be a Nicrosil Misting. Hmmm...[[/labelnote]]
