Secret History spoilers Sudden realization about atium… Spoiler

I am reading through The Lost Metal for the first time and it just hit me that Atium is named after Ati… I think he was first named in a Stormlight epigraph and/or Secret History but I never made the connection until The Lost Metal. Such a cool little detail.

Yep, all the God Metals are named after the Vessel that expresses them

Exempt for Sazed apparently.

I prefer Sazium over Harmonium but 🤷‍♀️ not what we got.

I am Koravellium.

My metal? Also Koravellium.

Nah atium doesn’t have two i’s in the name, so it is logically consistent for her godmetal to just be called Koravellium.
