=== Life in Fadrex City ===
Telden lived in Fadrex for some time,{{book ref|mb3|32}} and became good friends with Yomen.{{book ref|mb3|50}} Telden heard rumors from Luthadel that Elend had truly seized power in the city, but refused to believe them initially.{{book ref|mb1|32}} After the city was besieged by Elend's armies, Telden attended a ball held byat [[HouseKeep Orielle]], where he met Elend and [[Vin]].{{book ref|mb3|32}} Telden and Elend spoke for a time, Telden expressing his disbelief that Elend had set himself up as emperor and intended to conquer the city by force, comparing him to the Lord Ruler. Elend attempted to convince Telden that he was no tyrant and that his actions were necessary. Telden still doubted the truth of this, but changed the subject to his shock at Elend's marriage to Vin after Elend's hopelessness with women in his past. They parted as Elend went to speak with Yomen.
 
After Vin was captured by Yomen while searching Fadrex's storage cache, Telden and some skaa servants were sent down to speak with her by Yomen.{{book ref|mb3|50}} Telden's mission was to persuade Vin to drink wine with a powerful sedative in it so that she could be transported to a proper cell instead of remaining trapped in the cache. Telden himself doubted that he would convince her to do so. However, Telden successfully convinced Vin that no matter what she did to him and his servants, Yomen was unlikely to open the cache unless he gave the all-clear signal of his own free will, so Vin drank the wine and fell unconscious, in spite of her [[duralumin]]-enhanced [[pewter]] [[Allomancy|burning]].
