In {{Rosharan date|1173}}, during the War of Reckoning, Navani attempted to court Dalinar, picking up their mutual interest in each other from their younger days, that had only been allowed to lapse because Dalinar had stepped aside in favour of Gavilar. Their courtship was frowned upon by the [[ardentia]] but nevertheless maintained and culminated in them being married in [[Urithiru]] by the [[Stormfather]], as no ardent was willing to perform the rites. Afterwards, Dalinar was titled a highking, giving up his claim to the princedom and making Adolin the Kholin highprince.
 
After gaining access to Urithiru and the Oathgates, Dalinar founded the [[Coalition of monarchs|Coalition of Monarchs]] in an attempt to mount a resistance against Odium's army. Dalinar, Navani, and Jasnah are major leaders in this coalition. The first monarch he reached out to was [[Yanagawn]] of the Azish Empire, though they were initially recalcitrant and refused to take up any invitation.{{book ref|sa3|12}}
 
They went to attempt to ally with Queen Fen of Thaylenah after they were refused by Yanagawn, though she too refused they invitations initially.{{book ref|sa3|12}} The rulers of Yezier, Tashikk, and Tukar refused as well. Though Taravangian of Jah Kaved and Kharbaranth accepted their invitation, and was the first to do so, and thus he quickly became an important member of the coalition.
