Hoid and Design are nearing the end of their journey, and Hoid’s next story is one that somebody asked for. It wasn’t Design.
Episode 5 of their journey is here, and features the cutest dog this side of Yolen. What’s a dog you ask? A dog is a hound, like an axehound. They’re fluffy and loyal and wonderful.
These animated stories are written by Dan Wells and are non-canon to the Cosmere. All animations are hand-drawn by Martian Studios and created in collaboration with Dragonsteel.
Campaign launches March 3, 2026 on BackerKit!
