Below the Hall of Evocation lies the "Husk Ward", reachable from all seven Towers via hidden stairs. Here the school keeps those students who have been "curbed", because the school's sentry council did not see a fighting chance for them against their Nemesis Fiend, and who are thus now emotion- and driveless husks, or those students who are about to be "curbed". The room where the "curbing" happens is the central chamber. The name "Husk Ward" is not official, but has found its way into the speech of the Sentry guards and nurses anyway, when they are among themselves. Every three to four month, usually late in the evening to escape the notice of the other students, the Husks are driven through the southeastern tunnel towards the dock, where a ship waits which brings them back to the Harbor of Amn, where they are received by either their families or the caring nurses of the Amnian Roanites, the order who cares for the psychically ill.
