Hearthstone can get foggy in the mornings.{{book ref|sa4|1}} After the town becomes a refugee shelter, temporary shelters are created by stringing tarps between buildings, which can be taken down prior to a Highstorm.{{book ref|sa4|1}} This takes over entire streets.{{book ref|sa4|1}} Without the temporary structures there is not enough housing to accomodate all the refugees that have made their way to Hearthstone.{{book ref|sa4|1}} Those who want entry to the town have to first be medically inspected by Lirin. Although the singers wish this done to prevent the spreading of diseases, Lirin does it to intercept those who might need treatment.{{book ref|sa4|1}} The old guards of Roshone’s now man the line and are forbidden weapons.{{book ref|sa4|1}} Over a hundred refugees arrive at the town per day.{{book ref|sa4|1}} Tent 14 is set up specifically to watch over people who may be suicidal.{{book ref|sa4|1}}▼

▲Nearby there are lumpish rockbuds on hills. Hearthstone is humid.{{book ref|sa4|2}}
 
▲Hearthstone is a highly fertile landscape.{{book ref|sa4|3}} Rockbuds everywhere except land that has specifically been cleared for living or farming.{{book ref|sa4|3}} Fields of wild grass, trees forming bulwards against the storms.{{book ref|sa4|3}}
 
Citylord’s manor stands on top of the hilltop at the far edge of town and overlooks the village. It has a stormcellar that the singer leaders kept prisoners in{{book ref|sa4|3}} manicled to the walls.{{book ref|sa4|8}} Many of the residents were forced to give up their houses to the singers and live in close quarters with their neighbors.{{book ref|sa4|6}} There are lots of lurgs in the area.{{book ref|sa4|6}} On the leeward side of some hills rock has been carved out to form caverns that can be used for things like storing equipment.{{book ref|sa4|6}} The manor is set on fire during the escape of the residents and destroyed.{{book ref|sa4|6}} Waber is the mano’rs gardener.{{book ref|sa4|7}} The house is full of wood instead of stone.{{book ref|sa4|8}} The cellar is accessible through the kitchen and is built directly into the hillside and sloping downwards.{{book ref|sa4|8}} It contains a watercatch to prevent the tunnel from flooding during the storms.{{book ref|sa4|8}} Stormcellars are where ligtheyed families retreat to in the highstorm for safety.{{book ref|sa4|8}} The stormcellar is underground.{{book ref|sa4|8}} Kaladin and Laral played there as a child.{{book ref|sa4|8}} In the stormceller there is a alcove cut into the side of the room.{{book ref|sa4|8}} The room is roughly cut from stone and slopes back to the left of the doorway forming a small alcove that is not visible from the entrance.{{book ref|sa4|8}}
 
From a distance the houses resemble groups of discarded crab shells.{{book ref|sa4|9}} The rockbuds grown at Urithiru would be too small to be considered worth much in Hearthstone.{{book ref|sa4|15}} Medical herbs can be found growing in cultivated patches outside the city.{{book ref|sa4|18}}
 
 
 
Urithiru
 
After the town was largely destroyed by the Everstorm, the townsfolk relocate to Laral and Roshone's mansion.{{book ref|sa3|6}} Kaladin finds the townsfolk, including his family, gathered here after he returns home, following the [[Battle of Narak]]. Kaladin's return caused quite a stir amongst the villagers, due to a combination of his slave markings, his possession of a Shardblade and his position as a Knight Radiant.{{book ref|sa3|6}}{{book ref|sa3|7}} After gaining information regarding the whereabouts of the towns missing [[parshmen]], Kaladin departed the town, which he left in the care of Roshone and Laral.{{book ref|sa3|7}} Kaladin's parents, as well as his infant brother, [[Oroden]], also remained behind in Heartstone when Kaladin departed.
