=== 1173 ===
During the year 1173, [[Jasnah Kholin]] travelled to Kharbranth
During her time in Kharbranth, Shallan struck up a friendship and potential romance with the ardent [[Kabsal]], who she met while waiting to speak with Jasnah after the incident with Taravangian's daughter. The pair often spent time together around the Conclave, picnicking in the palace gardens and talking in the Palanaeum. Shallan also became quite well known amongst the Conclave staff for her drawing abilities, with many of the workers requesting portraits from the young scholar.{{book ref|sa1|29}}{{book ref|sa1|33}}{{book ref|sa1|7}}{{book ref|sa1|42}}

=== Taravangian's Study and Secret Hospital ===
Taravangian's study is set against the outer rock face, with a large window set into the wall overlooking the city and out towards the ocean. Overfilled bookcases line the right wall, while two dozen lamps in a double row are on the left. A door in the wall of the room leads to a secret hospital hidden within the Conclave, not marked
Those that are brought to the hospital are killed through exsanguination. This method is used as it is both slow and convenient, allowing for the recording of Death Rattles from those affected by Moelach. While it is preferable that only terminal patients are transferred to the hospital, the number of occupants is sometimes bolstered by high risk citizens. The ardent, [[Dova]], oversees the collection of the Death Rattles and the hospital is staffed by the Silent Gatherers.{{book ref|sa1|71}}{{book ref|sa2|i|14}}
