Removing the comment that the worldhoppers used false names - part of the joke is that they gave their real ones and Ishikk dismissed them (Thinker = Temoo = Demoux , Blunt = Vao=Baon, Grump = Galladon)

=== Interactions with the Worldhoppers ===
At some point towards the end of the [[Era of Solitude]], Ishikk was approached by three unusual men. They used false names and theirTheir appearance was not consistent with any Rosharan ethnicities. Ishikk called them "Grump", "Blunt", and "Thinker", based on their personalities.{{book ref|sa1|i|1}} The trio were in fact [[worldhoppers]] and agents of the [[Seventeenth Shard]]—[[Galladon]] from [[Sel]], [[Baon]] from [[Taldain]], and [[Demoux]] from [[Scadrial]].{{wob ref|12809}}{{wob ref|7910}} Ishikk found them odd, but he felt that way about most foreigners. He did not realize who they really were,{{wob ref|3251}} and assumed they were from another part of Roshar.{{book ref|sa1|i|1}}
 
Because Ishikk traveled to various places around the lake, the three men hired him as an agent to search for [[Hoid]], although they did not fully explain Hoid's identity to Ishikk. Ishikk worked for the men for at least five months, visiting various villages and asking after anyone with Hoid's characteristics, but he did not find anything of interest.{{book ref|sa1|i|1}} Hoid was actually aware that the Seventeenth Shard was looking for him in the area, and was amused because they had followed a false lead.{{wob ref|12809}}
