Hrathen delivers a sermon. We learn a bit about the religion and how hierarchical it is. Sounds like a recipe for absolute tyranny. I wonder how Fjordell is doing so well. Perhaps the current tyrannical leader at least knows how to keep food on the table by not seizing the means of production.
Fanatical sidekick Dilaf delivers an even better sermon. Hrathen decides he is useful if annoying. I suspect he is going to end up being a pain in the ass.
Hrathen is doing some deal with Duke Telrii, seen in an earlier Sarene chapter at court.
We learn that Hrathen uses a seon that he keeps locked in a box to communicate with Wyrn (the tyrannical dictator). This is a big secret because seons are heathen.
People keep referring to them as "creatures" but it seems obvious to me they're Amazon Alexas. I'm pretty sure the whole magic of Elantris thing is just some ancient forgotten tech. It just needs turning off and on again.
