Sootwarrens

Sootwarrens appears in Mistborn.

The Sootwarrens, the impoverished slums of Luthadel, serve as the gritty underbelly of the Final Empire in Mistborn Era 1, embodying the skaa's oppressed existence amid perpetual sootfall from the Ashmounts. Though not prominently featured in the first book, they represent the squalid home to countless skaa workers toiling under the Lord Ruler's tyranny. Across the series, the Sootwarrens fade from focus as the empire crumbles and new eras dawn, symbolizing the old world's decay.
