Velvet Posted November 13, 2022 Posted November 13, 2022 Ok so I know the theory that Hoid was the one who actually tricked Terrorvangian already exists, and its one I strongly believe in, but I don't think all the evidence is there. From my own recent re reading of Mistborn: Secret History, I found the line "Gods, it appeared, could still fall for a classic misdirection con" from Kelsier, after tricking or misdirecting Ruin. This got me going hard on the idea that Hoid had in fact tricked terrorvangian, as he had been talking about the basics of misdirection at the beginning of that very scene. I'm not one for long theory posts (yet), but please add on any other info, or if this has been spotted before. Thanks lads. 2

S. Stormy she/her Posted November 14, 2022 Posted November 14, 2022 Hello there! I'm sorry to say that, no, Wit/Hoid was truly tricked. WoB here. Also, try not to post twice in a RoW*, that's kinda-sorta against the rules? Just edit your previous post. Quote Questioner My friends and I have been endlessly debating whether Wit knew what happened to him at the end of Rhythm, when he said "that went exactly as I planned," if he knew he was gonna get duped? Or if he got hornswoggled? Brandon Sanderson He legitimately got hornswoggled. One of the opening chapters of the next book is going to be him realizing that. There's a little teaser for you.
