Hoid's insults

Stormlight Archive

In the Stormlight Archive, Hoid is the King's Wit of Alethkar.

He was a sword, a tool maintained by the king. Insulting others was beneath the dignity of the king, so just as one used gloves when forced to handle something vile, the king retained a Wit so he didn’t have to debase himself to the level of rudeness or offensiveness

Lady Alami! No, please, don't speak--it's much easier to maintain my illusions regarding your intelligence that way

"Ah, young Prince Adolin!” Wit exclaimed. “You actually managed to pry yourself away from the camp’s young women long enough to join this hunt? I’m impressed.”
