After encountering Parshendi somewhere to the south of the [[Shattered Plains]]{{book ref|sa1|28}}, King Gavilar started to establish diplomatic relations that eventually led to a treaty between the Alethi and the nation of [[parshmen]]-like beings. The Parshendi were invited to celebrate the signing of the treaty in [[Kholinar]].{{book ref|sa1|prologue}}
On that night, Gavilar revealed to a Parshendi woman named [[Eshonai]] his secret intention to bring back the [[Fused|old Parshendi gods]] in order to also bring about the return of the [[Heralds]]. He mistakenly believed that the Parshendi would welcome this news. In reality, their ancestors had abandoned their gods in favor of freedom, and they did not want their gods to return.{{book ref|sa3|prologue}}
