Immortal Platypus Posted October 21, 2022 Posted October 21, 2022 I WoK, Syl says that she dislikes Hoid and that he's strange. He is strange, but does anyone know why she dislikes him? Is it because he knew Tanavast or some other reason? Thanks ya'll 1
1 Wits instant noodles he/him Posted October 26, 2022 Posted October 26, 2022 Maybe not but he probaly did something that made Syl mad or just straight pissed at hoid or maybe he insulted her radiant as he famiosly does and went to far in Syls opinion 2
0 AonDoor he/him Posted October 21, 2022 Posted October 21, 2022 In The Way of Kings, Syl is still rather childlike. Children sometimes don't like what they do not understand. Perhaps she dislikes him simply because she does not understand him. 1
0 Wits instant noodles he/him Posted October 26, 2022 Posted October 26, 2022 Syl is also an original honor spren and assuming Hoid was on Roshar with the radiants of that time Syl might not remember Hoid but still recognizes him as someone not to trust
0 Immortal Platypus Posted October 26, 2022 Author Posted October 26, 2022 Hoid probably was on Roshar for at least some of the time of the KR, but I don't think he would have been seen as someone who was not to be trusted. After all, he has a Nahel bond and hasn't killed his spren.
0 Immortal Platypus Posted October 26, 2022 Author Posted October 26, 2022 i doubt it. Hoid wouldn't have been the King's Wit at that point in time and that is his excuse for insulting people. He would have been attacked and "killed" if he insulted people as much as he does now back then.
0 Immortal Platypus Posted October 26, 2022 Author Posted October 26, 2022 He was a KR, even if he was old, he could still beat a normal human in a fight. And yes, I know that Hoid isn't a normal human, but still, Hoid isn't going to kill a KR over Hoid himself insulting the KR.
0 Monk of Dakhor Posted December 1, 2022 Posted December 1, 2022 (edited) What it could be is maybe he hasn't killed the spren he has now. He could have possibly had honor spren or other kind and killed them, and quite possibly didn't feel bad or regret it.

0 Immortal Platypus Posted December 1, 2022 Author Posted December 1, 2022 I'm pretty sure he didn't. I think Design is his only spren.
0 Yumiya Posted December 1, 2022 Posted December 1, 2022 It might be as simple as Hoid being the sort of person to bond a Cryptic and be, well, cryptic and Honorsprens' dislike of Cryptics and lies in general.
-2 Wits instant noodles he/him Posted October 26, 2022 Posted October 26, 2022 Its his excuse but he doesn't always need an excuse and yes he would be killed unless he insulted some one to old or unimportant to kill Hoid as we know Syl told Kalidan that her old radiant grew old. 1
-2 Wits instant noodles he/him Posted October 26, 2022 Posted October 26, 2022 Yes but if he was an old man he might not want to fight but Syl being Syl is still pissed at Hoid 1

Question
Immortal Platypus
I WoK, Syl says that she dislikes Hoid and that he's strange. He is strange, but does anyone know why she dislikes him? Is it because he knew Tanavast or some other reason?
Thanks ya'll
