| - | The refectory, once used as an annex chapel to the Mists, was transformed during this period, notably with the addition of a platform—still here—intended for a tegelthan. This instrument, undoubtedly lost during the upheavals of 789, was considered by Peyrii-of-the-Great-Plain to have already existed during the Threnodes’ time, merely relocated to this platform. Originally, it was installed in an adjacent room (H5•1760 on the Peyrii Cadaster) that connected to the refectory via a now-bricked-up opening (though the trace of the former opening is still clearly visible). | + | The refectory, once used as an annex chapel to the Mist, was transformed during this period, notably with the addition of a platform—still here—intended for a tegelthan.

| This grand hall is notable for its acoustics. As with all assembly halls designed for listening to oratory, it features a large alcove at the end to amplify the speaker’s voice without requiring them to raise their tone. Similar structures can be found in the Palace and many public buildings, serving the same purpose. | This grand hall is notable for its acoustics.

| The facade facing the Old Juvenal Dormitory Ladder has lost its beautiful pointed arches from the Threnodes’ era. These were repeatedly altered, eventually replaced by a large blank wall punctuated only by a few small arched windows, more suited for defensive purposes during troubled times. Similarly, the monumental entrances that were created when the refectory became an annex chapel to the Temple were gradually reduced in size to a simple double-leaf door. The other door, leading to the former kitchens, has been bricked up. This facade bears witness to the many trials the building has endured. Peyrii-of-the-Great-Plain had once considered restoring the grand pointed arches from the Threnodes’ time, but lacking sufficient documentation, | The facade facing the Old Juvenal Dormitory Ladder has lost its beautiful pointed arches from the Threnodes’ era.
