|The Voidbringers were cast back into the Tranquiline Halls. The Heralds followed to force them out of heaven as well, and Roshar’s Heraldic Epochs ended. Mankind entered the Era of Solitude. The modern era.

The '''Era of Solitude''' is the name given to the four thousand year period following the [[Heraldic Epochs]].{{book ref|sa1|45}}

== Silver Kingdoms ==
The [[Silver Kingdoms]] existed from some time prior to [[Aharietiam]]{{book ref|sa1|45}} until likely just after the [[Day of Recreance]].{{book ref|sa1|32}} The Knights Radiant supported a unified kingdom across the land connecting everyone via [[Urithiru]], with [[Alethela]] being the center of protection for all of the Kingdoms.{{book ref|sa1|19}} After the fall of the Knights, and with [[Urithiru]] abandoned (leaving each kingdom isolated) they would no longer be able to function as they had.{{book ref|sa1|45}}

== Beginning ==
The Era of Solitude began after the [[Last Desolation]] known as [[Aharietiam]].{{book ref|sa1|45}} After being told that the [[Voidbringer]]s had been defeated by the remaining [[Herald]]s, mankind began rebuilding for the first time in years.{{book ref|sa1|part=prelude}}
