So I know the last desolation was four and a half thousand years ago; but I'm trying to analyze Vorinism, and I cant remember an exact date for the fall of the Hierocracy and the formation of the ardentia.
Also, on a side note, are ardents forbidden from violence? It would seem logical, but Zahel did teach Dalinar how to fight, so I dunno. Any WoG on this?
Besides that, any reference frame for dating systems used on Roshar would be much appreciated. thanks!
