I'll resolve this on the 14th, unless someone who has bet on it asks me to wait longer.


The book was not explicit about what the title phrase referred to. I believe that the correct answer is lerasium (atium wasn't very plot-relevant, and no other metal in the book had been 'lost'). If you think this is incorrect, this is your chance to appeal. If there's significant disagreement here I'll probably hold a poll on 17th Shard.

I think I will wait a few weeks to resolve this, so as to give people a chance to read the book first.

I agree, and in the case of duplicates, will resolve to the answer which was added earlier.
For the record, if someone submits an answer of Harmonium, I will consider it a duplicate. Ettmetal = Harmonium = Sazedium
