It’s basically saying that pre-Catacendre when Preservation’s power isn’t fully held by a Vessel, a Mistborn could Ascend by being invested with enough of Preservation’s power through Lerasium.
Spoiler
Later in Mistborn Era 2 we see Wax is able to split Harmonium into Lerasium and Atium.
If a Mistborn in Era 2 or beyond obtained and burned enough of either metal to become a savant, since the shard’s powers are already held, would they become an Avatar by being so heavily invested with the shard’s power? And if so, would they be an avatar of Preservation/Ruin, or of Harmony?
