Continuing his talk with Chade, FitzChivalry is handed the task of keeping Kettricken company. Chade knows that misery loves company and offers the fact that a Queen-in-Waiting can be a powerful ally. However, Fitz also hears the same bad news about Molly from the old assassin as he did from Lady Patience. Discouraged from those talks and angered by the realization that his life isn’t his own to control, he walks down to Buckkeep Town. Anger built upon anger at being caged leads Fitz like a hound to a quarry. He meets a new friend.

Disclaimer: Emma’s microphone had a malfunction that we weren’t aware of while recording, so there is white noise as she speaks. We’ve tried to edit it so it is less apparent, but that also results in a slight warping in Emma’s voice for this episode. The white noise while Emma speaks will be fixed next episode.
