It's a map of all the Azath houses in all the lands of the world. The tiles stretch for many miles, and just one small tile represents the Malaz lands.

Because different members are going to different places, they fall through different sets of tiles.

Answer: No

Laseen isn't physically present, only her voice, which echoes throughout the room where Kalam searches for her. He allows her to make her case that he shouldn't kill her.

Laseen then declares that, since she could reason with him, he's no longer a threat.
