'''Ashertmarn''', the '''Heart of the Revel''', is a mindless [[Unmade]].{{epigraph ref|sa3|106}} He takes the form of a giant, black, inhuman heart that beats to an irregular rhythm. Thick black veins spout from the heart, melding with the ground nearby. He leads people to indulge in excess. He speaks to the people in his area, urging them to abandon their lives and responsibilities. The closer one is to him, the harder it is to resist AshermarnAshertmarn's tempting plea.{{book ref|sa3|78}}

During the mission to aid [[Kholinar]], [[Shallan]] discovers the presence of not one, but two Unmade, one of them being Ashertmarn.{{book ref|sa3|77}} In order to investigate the revel, Shallan creates a reputation by delivering food to the poor. Once she has been heard of, she takes a large offering of food to the revel and is exceptedaccepted onto the [[Oathgate]], Ashertmarn's location.{{book ref|sa3|78}} The Oathgate is divided into three sections. In the outer section, the people delighted in an abundance of delicious foods, mindlessly sating their hunger for the revel. In the next ring inward, the occupants crawled from place to place, too focused on the excess to even stand. The food there is rotten and moldy, infested with [[decayspren]]. In the center ring is the Unmade himself, completely covering the Oathgate's control building. Shallan would have been unable to extract herself from the revel if not for [[Sja-anat]]'s interruption, who appeared to Shallan, breaking her focus on the black heart.{{book ref|sa3|78}}
