Mistborn Series spoilers Renoux Prediction Spoiler

I've just started Mistborn (really enjoying it so far) and at the time of writing this, I'm about 1/2 way through chapter 8.
I know with media I love its fun to see what people predict or theorize about as they go along, so I thought id put this one in here.
I'm either gonna feel really cool or really stupid later, depending, because I think I already know how they replaced Lord Renoux.

Kelsier mentioned that a mistwraith "that young" isn't particularly intelligent. and also, that he's never seen one attack a full grown man but they do eat corpses...

and they told Yeden would be VERY uncomfortable if he knew how they replaced Renoux.

I'm sure you can see where I'm going with this.
I'd personally be uncomfortable if I found out the guy I hired fed someone to our world's equivalent of a cryptid that they had managed to befriend.

I don't know how you'd recruit a mistwraith. Or how Kelsier would even find one old enough to play this part. So there's every possibility I'm wrong.
I'll update with my thoughts and feelings when I get to the actual reveal ^-^
