Retrac Posted February 1, 2021 Report Share Posted February 1, 2021 Ok so I recently reread BoM and I'm slightly confused on one part. Why did Hoid give Wax a metalmind of Kelsier's memory? We know that Hoid and Kelsier aren't friends so chances are he isn't doing it to help him. So why? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quantus Posted February 1, 2021 Report Share Posted February 1, 2021 It outed his identity (and current status) to the modern population (or at least Wax, whom Harmony has taken a personal interest). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weltall Posted February 3, 2021 Report Share Posted February 3, 2021 Relevant WoB: Quote Viridian Why did Hoid give the memory coin to Wax? What was his intention? Brandon Sanderson He thought that certain information was being kept, and certain lies were being perpetuated. And Hoid was a fan of that information being out. Viridian I'm still suspicious. Brandon Sanderson Oh, you should be suspicious of Hoid's motive. He and Kelsier do not get along. Let's just say... Kelsier did not want that information to get out.

Kingsdaughter613 Posted July 12, 2021 Report Share Posted July 12, 2021 That’s the question, isn’t it. Of course, there may be other information that we haven’t seen yet on the Coppermind. Wax did drop it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, there may be other information that we haven’t seen yet on the Coppermind. Wax did drop it. And there were other coins like this already being circulated around, as noted by Devlin Airs at Lady Kelesina's party: Quote Devlin turned it over in his fingers. “Though I’ve never seen the exact image on this one, coins like these have been moving with some regularity through black-market antiquities auctions. I’ve been baffled as to why. There is no reason to keep them secret, and it would not be illegal to sell them in the open.” He flipped the coin back to Wax. ... “Gave bought a few,” Devlin said, “then immediately stopped, and the pieces he purchased are no longer on display in his home.” Are they copies of this same memory (can one duplicate memories in copperminds with Compounding)? If not, what DO they contain? Are they unsealed coppermind coins at all? Was Hoid disbursing them as he was with the one he threw at Wax, since they don't appear to be sourced from the Southern Scadrian airship that the Set were investigating?
