After the [[Everstorm]] was created, Venli, led by Ulim, sought to find her sister, gone missing during the battle. She was heartbroken upon finding Eshonai dead, and stunned when Ulim told her that he only sought the [[Shardplate]] she'd been wearing at the moment of her death. The event somehow unlocked her ability to attune to the old, pre-stormform Rhythms. While stripping the Shardplate off Eshonai, Venli also spotted a strange [[spren]] escaping from underneath the corpse.{{book ref|sa3|i|3}}
When nine listeners were chosen by Ulim to receive "new forms", Venli and Demid were among them. In the Everstorm, the [[Fused]] replaced the souls of all of them, possessing their bodies, with Venli being the sole exception.
Afterwards, Venli became Odium's chief propagandist, first in [[Kholinar]], then in [[Marat]], telling the tragic tale of the listeners who, according to the new narrative, sacrificed themselves to free the [[Parshmen]] of their mindless slavery. During that time, she was kept apart from other singers to maintain her mystique; in lieu of contact with her people, she began chatting at her mute spren, whom she nicknamed [[Timbre]]. At Timbre's urging, she finally admitted that summoning the old gods was a horrible mistake, and that she wished she should be like her sister.{{book ref|sa3|i|7}}{{book ref|sa3|i|9}}{{book ref|sa3|i|11}}
