In a departure from his previous appearances, Hoid plays a relatively major role on [[Roshar]]. Most often seen under the guise of ''Wit'', [[Elhokar Kholin]]'s court jester, he influences [[Dalinar]], going so far as to ask Dalinar if he has ever heard the term "Adonalsium".{{ref|b|twok|c|54}} He also meets [[Kaladin]] and tells him a story about [[Derethil]] and the ''[[Wandersail]]''.{{ref|b|sa1|c|57}} During the course of the story, Hoid uses a special, ancient flute called a Trailman's flute. It is also likely that he uses [[Lightweaving]] to cause the smoke from the fire to take the form of various elements from his story.

Hoid appears again later on in the book at the very same time as [[Taln]], a [[Herald]], who breaks through the gates of [[Kholinar]] and falls unconscious after declaring that the [[True Desolation]] is imminent.{{ref|b|twok|epilogue}}
 
Hoid agian in this plays a minor role as Wit. For most of the book, they say he is away, which is presumed to be when he went to Scadrial during the mistborn series, but not for certain.

In the first Interlude, Ishikk, a man from the Purelake, spends six months being paid by three men to ask around the area after Hoid. These three men are [[Galladon]], [[Demoux]], and a third man from a book that has not been published, referred to as Vao or Blunt. These men are almost certainly members of the Seventeenth Shard.
