Men inside the keep came out and examined the discarded weapons. Initially, some officers yelled for the Blades to be left alone. They were quickly overwhelmed, however, as men rushed to claim a weapon. It did not take long for the scramble to deteriorate into a fight, with men using their newly obtained Blades to kill other soldiers.{{book ref|sa1|52}}

| 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.

The Knight's actions during the Recreance led not only to the destruction of the orders as a whole, but also to the deaths of the former members. The sense of betrayal many felt at the act of the Radiants led many people to attack and kill them. The Skybreakers chose to hide their order and take up a mission of preventing the Knights Radiant from rising again, believing it would lead to the return of the [[Voidbringers]] and [[Desolation]]s.{{epigraph ref|sa2|41}}
Society quickly changed after the Recreance and began to form the culture seen in modern Roshar. Those in power wanted control of the Shardblades. To prevent women from wielding them, they encouraged following [[Arts and Majesty]], a philosophical novel claiming masculine arts are two-handed and feminine arts are one-handed. In retaliation, a movement of women claimed the ability to read and write for themselves.{{wob ref|6245}} It is also likely that the division between [[lighteyes]] and [[darkeyes]] was formed during this time. It is likely the modern lighteyes rule is based partly on the powers and authority Radiants had. The majority of lighteyes are descended from people whose eyes changed color, which would mean their ancestors were either Radiants or [[Shardbearer]]s.{{wob ref|81}}
Spren societies were completely decimated. The majority of the surviving spren were mere children at the time, and were forced to spend centuries without nurture and guidance. It took some spren societies two thousand years to regain the culture they had lost.{{book ref|sa3|47}} Many spren feel a mistrust and dislike of humans as a result. This causes some spren to bond singers or work with the [[Diagram]] rather than support the re-formation of the Knights Radiant and trust humans again.{{book ref|sa3|107}}{{book ref|sa3|121}} Some would even choose to kill humans before allowing the formation of a Nahel bond.{{book ref|sa3|47}}
Within two hundred years of the Recreance, knowledge of the Radiants was already beginning to be lost. It was difficult to distinguish facts, superstition, and lore.{{book ref|sa2|77}} At some point, many Shardbladse were lost, as hundreds were dropped during the Recreance and only around eighty are known in the modern world.{{book ref|sa1|52}}
