After the storm in which they adopted warform, another family attacked them. So, the warform listeners and the family's Shardbearer went out and told them to unite with their family, in order to show the humans an united nation when they next came to the Shattered Plains.{{book ref\|sa4\|68}} They went to dozens of families with their proposal of unity, and they all gathered in the First-Rhythm’s city. Venli told Ulim to have his contacts among the humans make Gavilar bring listeners to the human cities, hoping to intimidate the other listeners and convince them to take forms of power.{{book ref\|sa4\|73}} However, upon visiting the human cities, the listeners weren't intimidated; they liked the city, and enjoyed themselves there.{{book ref\|sa4\|77}} They signed a treaty with the humans in {{rosharan date\|~~1168~~1167\|9}}, and there was a party to celebrate it.{{book ref\|sa1\|prologue}} That day, [[Nale]] approached Venli, saying Gavilar was going to betray the listeners and that Venli had to assassinate the king to stop him. That gave Ulim the idea of killing the king to drive the humans to attack the listeners, to intimidate them.{{book ref\|sa4\|77}} At the same time, Gavilar indicated to Eshonai that he wanted to bring back the listener gods. Since the Council of Five feared their gods' return, they voted and decided to kill the king to stop him. Ulim had guided [[Klade]] to buy [[Szeth]], so they sent Szeth and he killed Gavilar.{{book ref\|sa3\|prologue}} The assassination led to the formation of the Alethi [[Vengeance Pact]] and caused the [[War of Reckoning]], a prolonged war between the listeners and the Alethi on the Shattered Plains. {{image\|Rhythm of Mourning by Caio Santos.jpeg\|side=right\|height=250px\|Listeners after a battle with the [[Alethi]]}}
