It takes a full day of travel via carpet to arrive at the location indicated; it doesn't look terribly impressive, a small abbey sitting atop a lonely hill, in the mountainous foothills, though there was no real sign of habitation, or a large army, or anything. The abbey looks abandoned entirely... at least until Amvarean mentions that she saw a flicker of movement in the bell tower. Given that no one else could make out more than 'that it was a building', that was impressive.
