{{quote|The story mentions the Desolations at the beginning. Giving them credit for having wiped out Parasaphi's people.|Navani about the myth{{book ref|sa1|61}}}}
The '''myth of Parasaphi and Nadris''' is the creation myth of the [[Makabak|Makabaki]] people of [[Roshar]]. [[Navani Kholin]] and [[Renarin Kholin]] discuss it while trying to understand [[Dalinar's visions]] and the [[Desolation]]s. [[Evi Kholin]] told the story to Renarin when he was a child.{{book ref|sa1|61}}
This legend says that the Makabaki people are all descended from Parasaphi's children. This would mean that Marnah predates the [[Silver Kingdoms]] of [[Makabakam]]. However, in the modern day, it's unclear which mountain range corresponds to the peaks of Dara. The telling of the myth changes, each naming different mountain ranges for the peaks.{{book ref|sa1|61}}
[[Dalinar Kholin]] found the idea that people would be born from rocks to be ridiculous.{{book ref|sa1|61}}
