Luthadel

Known facts

second-army-arrivesOn the day Elend wins his solidarity vote, a second army arrives outside the city walls — not Straff attacking, but a separate force whose identity has not yet reached the Assembly hall.MB1:WoA:Ch 10
siege-beginsThe two encamped armies cease to be a posture and become a siege. Straff digs in to the north, holding the canal back to his capital Urteau; Cett digs in to the west, holding the Luth-Davn Canal back to his cannery at Haverfrex. Patrols seal the lesser canal routes, the bridges across the River Channerel, and every road out of the city, and the city is cut off from the rest of the Central Dominance — counting on starvation and disease to do the work of an attack.MB1:WoA:Ch 16
wells-poisoned-during-siegeLuthadel's public wells in at least two squares are poisoned during the siege — outbreaks of severe diarrhea and abdominal sickness traced back, by the skaa healers, to a single neighborhood's water supply, with several already dead. Elend has the wells boarded and posted, and orders an empty noble mansion appropriated to take the overflow of sick. The source — Straff or Cett — cannot be determined.MB1:WoA:Ch 33
river-grates-breachedFelt discovers that the river grates intended to seal the city beneath the water have been pried free and locked back into place so a swimmer can pass in and out unobserved — the route by which the city's poisoners have almost certainly been coming and going.MB1:WoA:Ch 42
luthadel-emptied-after-mists-vanishedReturning to find Luthadel a ruin — Kredik Shaw flattened to a crater, a third of the city burned, Keep Venture a husk — Elend reads the city as emptied rather than slaughtered. The population fled when the mists vanished and the sun lurched abruptly into night; the survivors made for the Pits and the Terris refugee camp.MB1:HoA:Ch 77
