Location from Mistborn by Brandon Sanderson
The sprawling capital of the Elendel Basin in Era 2, built on Luthadel's foundations. A modern industrial city with canals, skyscrapers, electric lighting, and automobiles. Named after Elend Venture.
Elendel is Scadrial reborn — three hundred years after Harmony remade the world, it has grown into an industrial powerhouse. The city is a study in contrasts that echo and transform the old noble-skaa divide: wealthy elite families control industry and politics while workers struggle in factory districts. Allomancy and Feruchemy are openly practiced but unevenly distributed among the population. The constabulary maintains order, though corruption runs deep. The broadsheets report news and scandal. The University studies the Metallic Arts academically. Beneath the modern veneer, the Set conspires, and the political tension between Elendel's dominance and the outer cities threatens civil war. Waxillium Ladrian navigates this world as both nobleman and lawman.
A vast metropolis of steel and stone rising along broad canals. Skyscrapers tower over older brick buildings. Electric streetlights line cobblestone roads where horse-drawn carriages share space with early automobiles. Smoke rises from factory districts while wealthy neighborhoods boast manicured gardens. The city sprawls outward from its center in rings of development — gleaming financial district, comfortable middle-class neighborhoods, rough industrial zones, and impoverished outer slums.
