Mist Repulsion

Mist Repulsion emerges as a chilling harbinger of doom in the Mistborn series, first manifesting in 'The Hero of Ages' when the mists, once a mere atmospheric veil, begin actively repelling Allomancers with an invisible barrier mere inches from their skin. Unlike the passive mists of prior eras that enveloped and empowered the mistborn, this new phenomenon signals the world's unraveling under Ruin's influence, preventing any contact and foreshadowing the apocalyptic Final Ascension. Though limited to the third book in the original trilogy, it underscores the escalating instability of Scadrial's atmosphere, evolving from a mystical ally to a lethal adversary.
