Fleet is a figure from legends on Roshar.
Kaladin tells Wit a tale of him running faster than a Highstorm.[1] According to the tale that Wit mentions about him he had raced the herald chanarach and won in order to prove his speed.Wit also claims that his story is well-known by all, but Kaladin doubts this as he had never heard of him before.[1]
It is likely that in the story he is supposed to represent Kaladin.
“Fleet kept running. He couldn't win, but he kept running. And when the storm caught him, it didn't matter that he’d died, because he'd run for all he had. We all die in the end, you see. So I guess what truly matters is just how well you've run. ”
—Kaladin's tale about Fleet
“ In his mind's eye, he saw the race. Fleet, a barefooted man. Wit claimed all knew of him, but Kaladin had never heard of such a story. Lanky, tall, with tied-back long hair that went to his waist. ”
