→The True Desolation

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.
Adolin assassinated [[Torol Sadeas]], the patriarch of House Sadeas, in the halls of Urithiru, and hid all evidence of his involvement in the death.{{book ref|sa2|89}}
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}}
