Like most other Heralds, Pailiah abandoned the Oathpact at the end of the Aharietiam.[3] Her current whereabouts are uncertain. It's highly possible she's posing as an ardent from the Devotary of Insight, serving in the Kharbranthian Palanaeum, although she does not belong to Taravangian's inner circle of advisors.[4][5][6] If so, Shallan may have crossed paths with her while studying under Jasnah.[7]

Culture

In the Vorin culture, Pailiah is associated with number 5 (Palah), the essence Pulp and the attributes of Learned and Giving.[8] The grand library in Kharbranth, Palanaeum, is named after her.[9]
