Shallan's father is having a feast, trying to pretend that their family hasn't grown impoverished. The guests are [[Tavinar|Brightlord Tavinar]] and his wife and [[Eylita Tavinar|daugher]]. They don't seem like they want to be there, and conversation is terse and stunted. Eventually, Shallan's father calls for a toast and announces that he has found a new wife, [[Malise Gevelmar]], who will be coming to the estate soon. The response is subdued, which makes him angry, but he gives celebratory gifts to his children anyway. The boys receive fine daggers, and Shallan gets a silver necklace.
The door to the feast hall slams open, and a man walks in. The man is [[Redin]], bastard son of [[Valam|Highprince Valam]], and he has come to investigate rumors about Shallan's mother's death. Lin says that his wife was murdered by her lover, but Redin says that others tell a different story. They speak alone for a while, and Lin eventually slams his hand down on the table in anger.
