I know, we love Elend Venture, and his death was a tragedy. But Sanderson did a beautiful job setting up a parallel for Elend’s execution with his good friend Jastes.
Jastes is attempting to control the Koloss in Well of Ascension. He brings them close to a major city, Luthadel, knowing the danger they are to humans, and uses them to conduct a siege. He eventually loses control of the Koloss and Elend executes him by beheading for this specific crime.
Fast forward to Hero of Ages and now Elend has control of the Koloss. He in turn uses them to conduct a siege on a major city, Fadrex. Elend loses the control he thought he had on the Koloss and they attack the city.
He commits the same crime as Jastes and ends up with the same fate. Beheading.
Interesting right? Who knew Sanderson would have a justice for Jastes plot line? Or maybe it was just great writing.
