Baerauble's Tomb and Etharr Hall are possibly one and the same.

• This room was named for a Court Sage who perished in the reign of King Duar protecting royal records during the "troubles." This room had been his workplace.
  

• A little-used royal trophy room of sorts that houses preserved monster relics in glass cases, including tentacles and the much-shrunken central eye of the beholder for which it is named--who like all the monsters whose parts are displayed here, was slain by an Obarskyr in the past. There are persistent rumors that this room is haunted, or that something valuable is hidden in it, tales reinforced by the standing order (from before the ascent of Azoun IV to the Dragon Throne) that the room be kept locked except for specific, approved-by-the-Crown (that is, King, Queen, or Royal Magician--plus Court Wizard, when this is a separate post) entries.

• Keys are to be retained by a soldier away from the dungeons, to prevent prisoners who overcome a guard from being able to win free of manacles or cells. Only in times of war would someone like a Battlemaster ignore such a standing order. BED:244


• The entrance to Xantorth Hall is to be kept locked at all times. Permission to enter must be obtained from the Crown--the sitting King, Queen, Mage Royal or Court Wizard can give permission. (LINK)

• The Room of the Watchful Sentinel is an antechamber off of this hall. p.194

• At the far end of a wing of the palace, a state chamber so removed from the chambers of state that it was rarely used. The room is decorated in crimson draperies and stuffed beds with matching hues. The room was long used for trysts so war wizards confiscated the keys on or about 1439 DR. A secret passage runs behind one wall of this chamber, on which a smiling portrait of King Duar and his queen hangs. Through the eyes of both Royals one may peer into the room and behold a well-used bed and catch sight of the great lamp-studded hanging statue for which the room is named. p.358

• A glass-roofed conservatory/greenhouse on the upper floor of the Palace, at the western end, farthest from the gardens, where flowers are grown for Palace table arrangements sheltered from rains and other severe weather. It is named for a stunningly beautiful young lady-in-waiting of the Palace very early in Azoun IV's reign, who covertly entertained an astonishing number of manservants within it, including the gardeners who tended it.
  

• 1479 DR: The royal magician and the lord warder can both give orders to the palace understeward. Only in times of war are other war wizards free to do the same. BED:158.

• p.175
  

• This is a back staircase linking two floors of the Palace, that has little "open" (doorless) rooms at top and bottom, furnished with ovals of seating and sidetables. It's often used by Palace staff and courtiers for brief, hushed conversations and consultations.
