USS bridge four he/him Posted November 28, 2017 Report Share Posted November 28, 2017 I think pretty self explanatory what I’m wondering about. The reason I’m wondering this is because what did Hoid see in him? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
habatab Posted November 28, 2017 Report Share Posted November 28, 2017 This is my number one hope for a novella! The adventures of Hoid and Sigizil! If the chapters were Rysn like, with a tour of Roshar being the real focus, I would be in heaven! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Snow he/him Posted November 28, 2017 Report Share Posted November 28, 2017 I keep wondering about this, Hoid even says in OB that he can't really afford to care about people like others can, so how the hell did he end up with an apprentice? I really hope they show that story at some point. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nymeros Posted December 8, 2017 Report Share Posted December 8, 2017 As Brandon would say, he has to have something to write about in future books. We need to know this and why he abandoned Hoid to kill a man... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
echaozh he/him Posted December 8, 2017 Report Share Posted December 8, 2017 Because he is able to remember a lot of things and cares for other people? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Llarimar he/him Posted December 8, 2017 Report Share Posted December 8, 2017 I have wondered about this before - obviously we don't know a lot about Hoid's motives or why he does half the things the does, but taking on a random apprentice in Roshar seems especially bizarre and out of place to me. I wonder if the Hoid-Sigzil backstory will have any relevance moving forward, or if it was just a way to inject Hoid further into the background fabric of the Cosmere. Maybe the Worldsingers will somehow be important in future books, or will have significance in Shadesmar and in other worlds. If that's the case, I can easily see Sigzil popping up in another series as a Worldhopper, and maybe teaming up with Hoid at some point. That would be really interesting, because as far as we know so far Hoid kind of works alone and most of the other important people in the Cosmere don't seem to like him very much.

ScavellTane Posted December 8, 2017 Report Share Posted December 8, 2017 (edited) If Hoid didn't pick him, he wouldn't have ended up in Brdge 4. Let's face it, he's going to teach Brigde 4 how to read and write in Book 4. Edited December 8, 2017 by ScavellTane 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thegatorgirl00 she/her Posted December 8, 2017 Report Share Posted December 8, 2017 So this WoB is interesting about the Worldsingers Quote Questioner Worldbringers and Worldsingers...similar mission? Brandon Sanderson The similarity of the names is intentional. Questioner Similar origin? Brandon Sanderson Yes. Questioner Did Hoid start them? Brandon Sanderson That’s a RAFO. That’s a RAFO, but definitely they have a similar origin. Source 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USS bridge four he/him Posted December 8, 2017 Author Report Share Posted December 8, 2017 Thank You for your thoughts. I was wondering because he only ever paid attention to the important people like when he was poking at Renarian and talking to Kaladin or Dalinar.
