The '''rebellion of the [[Pahn Kahl]] rebellion''' is an attempt to freeby the Pahn Kahl to free their people from the rule of the [[Hallandren]] pantheon{{book ref|wb|55}}.
 
== Cultural Background ==
The Pahn Kahl harbored resentment for the centuries of abuse they received at the hands of the Hallandren: their subjugation,{{book ref|wb|55}} relegation to the lowliest jobs available,{{book ref|wb|54}} and seeming assimilation to the point that most Hallandren assumed their culture no longer existed.{{book ref|wb|14}}{{wob ref|6964}}
 
The Pahn Kahl people have planned for the rebellion for generations.{{cite}}. Since the Pahn Kahl people are mostly viewed as harmless, they slowly climbed in ranks. The many head scribes before [[Bluefingers]] were also Pahn Kahl.{{cite}} Although comparedthe toPahn priestsKahl theyservants were lowlower inranked rankthan the priests, they had muchheld extensive power, byas they were responsible for performing many of the key functions in the palace.

[[Vasher]] attempts to break into the palace to stop Denth, but Denth and his mercenaries ambush and capture him; [[Vivenna]] soon comes to his rescue. When Vasher confronts fifty soldiers shortly after, he draws [[Nightblood]] and uses the magical blade to obliterate them with incredible fury, nearly draining him of his Breaths. Denth then challenges him to a duel. Although he fights with divine strength and ancient skill, Vasher is no match for the peerless Dent. Just before the last blow falls, Vasher bestows his few remaining Breaths upon Denth, stunning him, followed by a lethal thrust of the sword.{{book ref|wb|57}}{{wob ref|7469}}
