Difference between revisions of "Summary:Rhythm of War"

Wit has left the others and is now at the [[Pinnacle]]. He does tricks for an "audience", a group of spren corrupted by Sja-Anat, and explains the importance of subtelty in magic tricks and storytelling. Design contemplates that Wit's tricks with coin don't work that much on Roshar because they don't use coin to trade. Wit eventually tells Design to go bother someone else and moves to Elhokar's sitting room. Soon after, Taravangian-Odium arrives, shows his rage at Wit's contract and threatens him. However, Odium also asks Wit what his choice of champion would be, which surprises Wit. As the latter leaves the room and walks in the hallways, he ponders whether or not Rayse is growing more thoughtful. Realising that Wit might have doubts about his identity, Odium attacks Wit. Odium's voice is thoughtful and soft, and Wit feels true horror as he realizes his ennemy isn't Rayse any longer. Odium then destroys some of Wit's memories, held in his Breaths, which isn't in violation of the contract. Wit regains consciousness in the hallway, unaware of what happened, and returns to Elhokar's sitting room where the scene happens once again, Odium playing the angry brute more convincigly this time. Wit leaves after saying a different quip than the previous time but has trouble whistling, something preventing him from using perfect pitch. He wonders if something is wrong as the inconsistencies linked to his memory loss piles up. However he considers that this encounter went exactly as planned. It is not yet known who of Hoid or TodiumOdium tricked the other.
