After the Last Desolation, nine of the Heralds thought they abandoned the Oathpact, leaving only Talenel'Elin to uphold it.[1] However, despite what they believe, all the Heralds are still bound to the Oathpact.[4]

While at least some of the Oathpact still stands,[5] it is unknown exactly how much remains.
