=== The Heralds ===
The Heralds were believed to be forces of good which fought against the Voidbringers in one-hundred Desolations. After the hundredth Desolation, the Last Desolation or Aharietiam, they cast away the Voidbringers from Roshar forever. But they continue to fight against them in the TranqulineTranquiline HillsHalls, in order to liberate the HillsHalls from them.{{book ref|sa1|45}}
 
Each Herald is an emissary of the Almighty, wielding potent magical powers, as well as the ability to respond to prayers and patronage over a specific part of human experience.{{book ref|sa3|part=ars}} Vorinism typically places [[Jezrien]] and [[Kalak]] as the highest among the Heralds, with others beneath them.{{book ref|sa3|26}} Occasionally, either of them are conflated with the [[Stormfather]], who in turn is commonly equated with the Almighty himself, although this depends on the particular Vorin country.{{book ref|sa3|64}}{{book ref|sa2|74}}
