m (→Nalthis: Changed "Nalthis" to a more specific thing, "The Phan Khal Rebellion" due to him going to Nalthis during the lead-up to the rebellion) |
(→History: Some big restructuring. Changed names of some planets to refer to the events instead of just the planet. Moved his past visits to Roshar to be far back rather then weirdly placed in the True Desolation section.) |

==== The Way of Kings ====
[[Shalash]], upon seeing sketches of [[Talenel]] and herself, wonders aloud why Midius (a name taken by Hoid in an as-yet-unpublished text) is giving away drawings of them.{{book ref|sa3|121}}
In the epilogue, Hoid is shown in [[Kholinar]] insulting a [[Thaylen]] man in an attempt to elicit a reaction. Upon realizing that the man can't understand Alethi, Hoid decides repeating it all in Thaylen would be boring, so he cuts in front of the man. The man hits Hoid, knocking loose a tooth which Hoid discards upon leaving the area.
Hoid, finding a child around the corpse of her mother, used [[Awakening]] to lure her away from the body, leaving the child in the care of a family in the city. He then headed to the palace where he finds a [[Cryptic]], the spren [[Elhokar]] was about to bond before he died.{{book ref|sa3|epilogue}}{{wob ref|15354}}
