In these chapters, Vin gets a lesson in bronze and Kelsier inspects the army. After really enjoying a deeper look into Vin's family history as well as Marsh's (and by extension Kelsier's), we get into some very serious talks about what Kelsier does while visiting the army. Has he gone too far? Or, and stick with me here, maybe Kelsier hasn't not gone too far enough. Give that a bit to sink in. It still won't mean anything.
