==== The Last Desolation ====

| A…a decision has been made. It is time for the Oathpact to end.

| [[Jezrien]]'s words to [[Kalak]]{{book ref|sa1|prelude}}

At the end of the [[Last Desolation]], nine of the ten Heralds had survived the fighting. Like usual, they were supposed to return to [[Braize]] to hold back the [[Fused]]. Knowing they could not face more torture, however, they came up with a plan. [[Taln]], the only Herald to have never broken during the millennia of Desolations and the only Herald who died, would remain on Braize himself.{{book ref|sa3|38}} They had been warned that lingering on Roshar could lead to the start off anoter Desolation, but [[Ishar]] claimed that Taln by himself would be enough to hold back the Desolations and maintain the Oathpact. Rather than tell humanity the truth, the Heralds told everyone that they had finally won the fight.{{book ref|sa1|prelude}} This deception lasted for four-thousand five-hundred years, when Taln finally broke under the torture.{{book ref|sa3|38}}
