It's unknown how Kalak spent most of the four and a half thousand years between the [[Last Desolation]] and the [[True Desolation]]. He appears to have been at least distantly involved with the [[Knights Radiant]]. Shortly before the [[Recreance]], he and [[Nale]] were both present for [[Ba-Ado-Mishram]]'s imprisonment, and he knew the truth of what caused the Recreance.{{book ref|sa4|24}}{{epigraph ref|sa4|94}} At some point afterwards, he grew to regret what happened with the [[Unmade]], but he either didn't seek out her gemstone to release her or did not succeed in finding it.{{epigraph ref|sa4|97}}
 
Many centuries later, Kalak apparently became somehow involved with the [[Sons of Honor]]; it's unknown if he founded them or if he took them over. Under the name Restares, he became the leader of the group, gaining the attention of the [[Ghostbloods]].{{book ref|sa4|78}} Through the Sons of Honor, Kalak met [[Gavilar]] and encouraged, along with Nale, the king's work on transporting spheres across long distances, hoping to find a way out of [[Rosharan system]]. The two of them were both present at the night of Gavilar's assassination, and met with the king to see the results of his work, with Kalak complaining about the slow pace of progress.{{book ref|sa4|prologue}}{{book ref|sa4|77}} While walking down a palace corridor, Kalak expressed his fear for [[Shalash]]'s sanity, as well as the sanity of the remaining Heralds, himself included. Nale rebuked him, but before the two could discuss it, they bumped into [[Jasnah]], and Kalak fled from her.{{book ref|sa2|prologue}}
 
After [[Kaladin]] saved [[Meridas Amaram]] from an attack by [[Helaran Davar]] on a battlefield in [[Alethkar]] five years after Gavilar's assassination, Kalak, who was still using the name Restares, persuaded Amaram to take Helaran's Shards for himself and brand Kaladin a slave.{{book ref|sa1|51}}
