The True Desolation, the Everstorm, or the Night of Sorrows was announced as an upcoming event on Roshar.
In Dalinar’s visions he was told:
“Unite them. The sun approaches the horizon. The Everstorm comes. The True Desolation. The Night of Sorrows.”
“I have said I that cannot be of much help to you. The Night of Sorrows will come, and the True Desolation. The Everstorm.”
—Honor during one of Dalinar's visions[2]
Too, there was a death quote found concerning this:
“I have seen the end, and have heard it named. The Night of Sorrows, the True Desolation. The Everstorm.”
—Collected on the 1st of Palahes, 1172, 15 seconds pre-death. Subject was a darkeyed youth of unknown origin.[3]
Later on Talenel, one of the Heralds, appeared in Kholinar. He looked exhausted and dazed, and before falling to the ground unconscious, he told the guards:
“Who am I? I ... I am Talenel’Elin, Stonesinew, Herald of the Almighty. The Desolation has come. Oh, God ... it has come. And I have failed.””
—Talenel's reappearance[4]
