Fadrex Infirmary

Large converted Ministry building in Fadrex with beds for wounded soldiers and divided sections for injuries.

Fadrex Infirmary stands as a testament to the shifting fortunes of the Final Empire's last days, evolving from a repurposed Ministry building into a vital sanctuary for the wounded during the apocalyptic struggles of the Hero of Ages. Originally a symbol of the Steel Ministry's dominance, the structure is hastily converted to accommodate the flood of injured soldiers as Elend's forces besiege the city. Its divided wards and crowded beds become the backdrop for both desperate healing and the quiet unraveling of morale as the mists and ash claim more lives. Across the series, the infirmary embodies the transition from imperial control to revolutionary necessity, marking the human cost of the Catacendre.
