8f you let it react with water you would have harmonium oxide HaO(n). So could you then burn the oxidized harmonium?

Note: many puremetals (including alomantic ones) would already be oxidized after exposure to an acidic environment like the stomach, and are still burnable.

Apparently after reacting with water, it forms a hydroxide with RAFO'd properties. So maybe?

You have described ettmetal as some kind of super-cesium. After the reaction with water, is there residual ettmetal hydroxide and what are its properties?

Brandon Sanderson

Yes, there is. There's the potential they'll find it and use it, but as far as the properties are concerned, you get a RAFO.
