Shinwarrior Posted July 31, 2023 Posted July 31, 2023 At the end of ROW I recall there was some speculation that when Odium took Hoid's memories it was a ploy by Hoid and he knew what was happening. I believe there was a WOB put out that shut down that idea and confirms that Hoid in fact did not know what had happened, but it was nice to see it canonized in Yumi and in quite a tactful way I might add. That is all. 1
Arkangel Posted July 31, 2023 Posted July 31, 2023 Indeed! Also, Brandon just read a chapter from SA5, at Tampa Bay Comic Con. I'm not sure if this falls under the blanket of full Cosmere spoilers since it's not technically published material so I will spoiler tag it... Spoiler It's between Jasnah and Hoid in which he is reviewing his Breath-stored memories and realizes that he is missing 3+ minutes from his encounter with Odium and that it was very un-Rayse-like to leave someone feeling like they've won an encounter. There are some cool Invested Arts reactions that occur when Hoid is concentrating as well. Check it out! 3
Elegy he/him Posted July 31, 2023 Posted July 31, 2023 It was confirmed via WOB some time ago: 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. FanX 2021 (Sept. 16, 2021) But it's still good to have it as book canon! 1
