The Cthaeh actually got bored of the whole 'Give advice that kills a shitton of people' millenia ago.
It escaped the tree, set up a few things to make it seem like it was still there, and fucked off to Temmerant to have fun (in other words: petty vindictiveness rather than large scale evil).
It sets up a persona, gains enough power to fuck with people, lives out a human lifespan, then resets elsewhere.
It is currently Master Hemme, and has been for the last 40 odd years.

Revisiting again the Eld forest Arc, do you think that the rest of the group, Marten, Dedan and Hespe started a bet on how long would it take for Kvothe and Tempi to fuck?
Like they see that they start to get along, they hug each other, Tempi laughs at Kvothe's jokes (even if no one finds it funny) they are clearly flirting, and suddenly they do all their activities together (tracking, going to Croson, bath time), they spend hours together on their own far from the camp and when they return they are sweaty and Kvothe even starts to pick on Tempi manners. They probably thought they were a couple already now.
Then Kvothe leaves with Tempi to go on a trip to the mountains instead of joining them back to Severen, did they think they were celebrating their honeymoon or smth?

Been following you for a while but that ask was the first time I've seen KKC mentioned as far as I remember. I've never read it. Still in the middle of chewing through Guide myself but I could always use a longer reading list - you happen to have an elevator pitch?
Oh boy, KKC is Hard to pitch, but ill do my best. Its high fantasy, with an Extremely hard magic system, as well as a more mysterious soft magic system. The frame story is a not-quite middle aged innkeeper, actually a depressed mage in hiding, telling his life story to a famous scribe/researcher, whos tracked him down despite the innkeeper's best efforts to disappear.
The innkeeper (Kvothe) was (is?) a bard and a mage and a thief, and his life story starts with him happily travelling with his family as well respected travelling bards (and a fantasy ethnic/cultural group equivalent to the Romani people). It takes a quick dive into horrific tragedy, and from there things get more and more interesting.
Its genuinely one of the best stories ever written imo. The worldbuilding is incredible, the prose is gorgeous, and the characters are all so much fun. However, it doesnt have much of like...a single Plot. Kvothe has his own long term goals and whatnot, of course, but its very much the life story of a high fantasy hero (or villain, depending who you ask), so its very non linear, as far as plots go.
It definitely has its flaws (there arent nearly enough important female characters in the first book, and we still havent gotten book 3 after like a dozen years, so most of the Big Mysteries are completely unresolved), but Id still highly recommend it to anyone interested in fantasy bricks!

kvothe is so she/he to me. the reason the books take so long to edit is because pat has to go back and edit out all of the times kvothe uses she to refer to herself (she’s stolen the narrative and is writing through pat’s keyboard)

This is one of my most favourite music songs based on the Kingkiller Chronicles. The song is called Denna, and it's composed by Jonas Bunse and sung by Caro Saia. The video is from the YouTube channel JonasBunse. I've noticed that a lot of Kingkiller stuff is missed by Kingkiller fans because a lot of them on tumblr use the tag Kingkiller Chronicle instead of Chronicles (Chronicles is what the book series is called by bookstores and the author, but tumblr fans here call it Chronicle for some reason). Regardless, here's the video. I hope you like it! Feel free to check out the composer's YouTube channel too, as they write other songs.

"Kap beni, demişti.
Daha gözüpek davranmalı ve onu hanına bırakırken öpmeliydim. Daha ihtiyatlı davranmalıydım. Çok fazla konuşmuştum. Çok az şey söylemiştim."

Kvothe when saying goodbye to Dedan, Hespe and Marten so he could accompany Tempi to Haert, and instructing them to report to the Maer:
Kvothe: While I'm gone, Dedan, you're in charge.
Dedan: Hell yeah!
Kvothe whispering to Marten: Marten, you are secretly in charge.
Marten: Obviously.

The Yllish Story Knot on the Lackless box contains instructions on how to open it.
The Box itself contains 2 items: 1) Instructions on how to make the box.
2) A really clear glass marble, that was super hard to make to make 3000 years ago, and was a prize for whoever opened it.
Not their fault that it took so long and glass smelting advanced to such a degree.

i’m a little worried…there’s no news on the end-of-year worldbuilders fundraiser and patrick rothfuss hasn’t tweeted since november 17th
i hope he’s okay. i’m mostly concerned with the tweets going dead…
it still kinda sucks that he never delivered the one chapter when that stretch goal was reached last year but i thought he’d still do the fundraising—they did their summer fundraiser. idk it’s weird.
