Raoden and Galladon catch three new recruits for their gang, at great risk, but they seem to have gotten away with it. These other gangs aren't up to much if they're allowing this to happen. A bit of organisation should cover all the alleyways Galladon could have run down. Either they don't have the numbers or they are useless, or they think the risk-benefit analysis of stopping Galladon and Raoden shows it is not worth stopping them yet.
One of the new recruits is a builder and Raoden wants him to fix the roof of their HQ. I don't envy him. How long before he hits his thumb with a hammer?
Galladon seems to know a lot about Elantris and Raoden very little. Possibly this is Sanderson lampshade hanging that he needs an excuse for expository chat. Also I think it likely that Galladon has been in Elantris for longer than he is letting on. He claims to have been a farmer and only in Elantris for a short time but he is hiding something.
Galladon finds out Raoden was the crown prince. We find out what happened to Ien: the seon has gone mad as seons do when their owners get the Shaod. I suspect there is a clue here. Whatever is malfunctioning has something to do with seons.
