Alendi—no, the Lord Ruler— enters his palace through the door reserved for Mistborn. Or, as others might call it, an upper-story window.

The first order of business is resuming the Soothing of the population. With him gone, lesser Allomancers had to do it. He was gone for less than a day, but it's enough for a noticeable difference to crime and discontent. He replenishes his metals and starts burning brass. Any negative emotions within his range will decrease, and the people will be more content under his rule.

With that back to normal, he publishes a decree through the Canton of Orthodoxy. All new children, noble and skaa, are to have their birth names kept secret. People might not know why he's ordering that yet, but they don't have to.

And finally, he eats. Even with fully charged gold, not eating can get inconvenient.
