The Day of Recreance was the final act of the Knights Radiant. Nine of the ten orders abandoned their Shardblades and Shardplate and broke their oaths, killing their spren. The Order of Skybreakers was the one order that did not participate and instead hid themselves away.[1] For around two thousand years the reason for the Recreance remained unknown until it was rediscovered in the Eila Stele during the True Desolation.

Right before the Recreance, the Radiants had been fighting in the False Desolation. Ba-Ado-Mishram, one of the nine Unmade, had learned how to Connect to the singers to give them forms of power and Voidlight. The fighting was particularly intense at this time.[2] In an attempt to stop the fighting, the Radiants sent a strike team to try and imprison Ba-Ado-Mishram using the unique powers of the Bondsmiths. [3][4] Presumably this strike team succeeded as the singers lost their Identity and Connection and were unable to think or act independently, becoming what is known as parshmen.
While this was occurring, the Knights Radiant were forced to abandon Urithiru. For some unknown reason, the Sibling withdrew from the tower. People blamed this withdraw on increased conflicts among the Radiants and claimed the Sibling withdrew intentionally, but scholars of the time disagreed.[5][6] Some of the tower's protections failed leading to wilting plants and cooling air, but other functions, such as an increased air pressure, continued to work.[7] Some of the Radiants seemed concerned about the Unmade infiltrating the tower because of the failing protections when they left.[8]
Cause
“ Regardless, I . . . understand now as I never did before. The ancient Radiants didn’t abandon their oaths out of pettiness. They tried to protect the world. I blame them for their weakness, their broken oaths. But I also understand. ”
—The Stormfather's thoughts on the Racreance[9]
The Knights Radiant somehow discovered that surgebinding had destroyed the world humankind first inhabited and humans then invaded Roshar, the Dawnsingers' land. When previous generation had learned this fact, Honor had counseled them that their cause was just. During the generation of the Recreance, Honor was deteriorating for an unknown reason and did not do so. Instead, he raved about the dawnshards, ancient weapons responsible for the destruction of the Tranquiline Halls, and promised the Radiants they would also destroy Roshar. In order to save the world, nine orders decided to give up their powers so that Roshar wouldn't be destroyed like their first world was. [9]
Quotes
“ This act of great villainy went beyond the impudence which had hitherto been ascribed to the orders; as the fighting was particularly intense at this time, many attributed this act to a sense of inherent betrayal; and after they withdrew, about two thousand made assault upon them, destroying much of the membership; but this was only nine of the ten, as one said they would not abandon their arms and flee, but instead entertained great subterfuge at the expense of the other nine. ”
— Words of Radiance, Chapter 38, page 20[2]
“ "They are the first," the Radiant said, turning to Dalinar.
Dalinar recognized the depth of that voice. It was the voice that always spoke to him in these visions. "They were the first, and they were also the last."
"Is this the Day of Recreance?" Dalinar asked.
"These events will go down in history," the Radiant said. "They will be infamous. You will have many names for what happened here."
"But why?" Dalinar asked. "Please. Why did they abandon their Duty?"
The figure seemed to study him. "I have said that I cannot be of much help to you. The night of Sorrows will come, and the True Desolation. The Everstorm."
"Then answer my questions!" Dalinar said.
"Read the Book. Unite them."
"The Book? The Way of Kings?"
The figure turned and walked from him, joining the other Radiants as they crossed the stone plain, walking toward places unknown.”
