I’m currently fixing up all the Five Scholars with nice pages. |

==Appearance == |
|||
=== God king’s palace === |
|||
The palace of the [[Susebron|God King]] is located at the far side of the Court of Gods,{{book ref|wb|4}} directly opposite to the court’s gates. It is large, far larger then the other palaces{{book ref|wb|4}} and is pyramidal in shape, formed of large square blocks. |
|||
Every city has a little huddle of buildings for caravaneers and the likes. Also large stormbunkers to house armies or multiple caravans.{{book ref|sa3|45}} many small villages have a central cistern to catch rain water and filter out the crem. Alethi is used widely throughout the eastern world to make the underscript of a book. Also, lots of Alethi epics, which are famous even outside Alethkar.{{book ref|sa3|i|2}} |
|||
Because the God king represents all colors, the rooms where the God King stays are each coloured differently.{{book ref|wb|6}} The stone walls are still black however, so coloring is achieved by filling the room with silks and tiles of a specific color.{{book ref|wb|6}} The palace is divided into two area’s, the inner part, where the God king resides, in this area the rooms are all coloured,{{book ref|wb|24}}and the outer part, this is the servants area, inside this area the rooms are all black.{{book ref|wb|24}} Some rooms have windows to the outside.{{book ref|wb|8}} Most rooms in the palace don’t have a dedicated purpose, instead the servants bring in furniture when it is needed.{{book ref|wb|8}} Because of this most things in the palace are portable, like for example bathtubs.{{book ref|wb|8}} There are lots of storage rooms in the palace.{{book ref|wb|8}} There is a way to get to the top of the palace{{book ref|wb|22}}{{book ref|wb|56}} |
|||
=== Returned palaces === |
|||
Additionally all the [[Returned]] have their own palace in the Court.{{book ref|wb|3}} These palaces are arranged in a ring. While the palaces are the same color as the Returned who inhabits it, they are painted with many different hues, only visible for someone of the third [[heightening]].{{book ref|wb|14}} The palaces contain dozens of rooms. These rooms are filled with the finest decorations imaginable.{{book ref|wb|3}} While the palaces do have hallways, these are for the servants.{{book ref|wb|3}} At the center of a palace is a small room, in this room the residing Returned feasts on the breath of a child.{{book ref|wb|3}} |

Another room is the offering room, this room is long and thin and is completely white,{{book ref|wb|3}} something very unusual in Hallandren. This room is used to show the offerings which were made to a Returned,{{book ref|wb|3}} these will in turn rate the paintings.{{book ref|wb|3}} Petitions are heard in the petition hall, which is another room. Due to Hallandren’s climate the palaces don’t have actual walls, and are separated by little more then cloth. The Returned do employ guards, however these aren’t meant to actually protect the palaces, and are unarmed.{{book ref|wb|21}} The guards instead prevent people from entering the palaces without a reason.{{book ref|wb|21}} |

Every city has a little huddle of buildings for caravaneers and the likes. Also large stormbunkers to house armies or multiple caravans.[1] many small villages have a central cistern to catch rain water and filter out the crem. Alethi is used widely throughout the eastern world to make the underscript of a book. Also, lots of Alethi epics, which are famous even outside Alethkar.[2]
- Slavery -
A slaver must provide the reason someone was sold into slavery when he sells the slave, it is illegal to lie. It is illegal to wear a sword without being a lighteyes. Every man has a slave debt, but he can theoretically pay it off and earn back his freedom. It is suspected by some people to be a shum however, intended to keep the slaves docile because it is an enormous amount, far more then a slave is sold for. Many masters find ways to cheat a slave out of their wages, charging them for housing etc. A master can also always set a man free, or the man can try and escape. People don't like slavers, and so they often choose other slavers as company. According to Vorin rules, every slave has to be paid a small wage, half of what a non slave would receive. [3] Slave carts, roughly 10 men per. Masters are free to give beatings. Stealing may make someone a slave (Chulls). Although it could also be a death sentence (stealing horses) Many Alethi slaves are sold to the remote, small and independent cities on the coast of the unclaimed hills. The rules binding slavers and slaves are Vorin in origin, and as such apply to all the major Vorin realms. Brands are burned into the skin. Brands are made up of a glyphpair; the highlord's district where the person is originally branded.[4] Each slaver has a ledger containing information on the slaves, such as how much they've paid of their slave debt, it isn't uncommon to lie though. Prices range from roughly 1,5 emerald broams for a weak or bad slave[5] to three emerald browns for a good one, although the average is two broams.[6]
