Brother Lhan, also known as Kharat, is an Alethi ardent on Roshar.[2]

Appearance and Personality

Lhan is an ardent to the queen who loves the ease of the life that he has been given. He does as little work as he can, which is very little, and eats as much as he can. He sees no problem with the amount of food that goes to waste in Kholinar Palace, or that people in the kingdom are poor and starving.

History

Lhan went out to meet Pai in the morning because he was assigned to show her around the queen's palace. Lhan explains to her that the queen gave her ardents easy lives because she feared that the Almighty was displeased with her. He loves this even though he is aware of the hypocrisy. Many ardents write poetry about the queen but Lhan feel that this resembles work far too much, and doesn't do this. He tried to show her all the wonderful luxuries of the palace, but did not succed in making her happy about all this. He is horrified when he sees her graffiti about the queen resembling the Ten Fools.

During the Siege of Kholinar he succumbs to Ashertmarn and introduces Shallan to the Revel as Kharat.[1][expand]

Trivia

According to Peter he is probably unrelated to Barlesha Lhan.[3]
