Kvothe is so messed up that he has no problem doing poetry. We talk about Felurian’s animalism, the similarities between her and Auri, and come up with a new time loop.

Kvothe fights against Felurian’s hotness. We talk about Felurian’s description, the lack of crudity in the sequence, and the extent to which Kvothe is in extreme danger.

Kvothe realizes the nature of his peril, and attempts to master himself. We discuss how Rothfuss rides the line between sensuality and explicitness, how Kvothe retains his control, and why this brief passage of the book is so impactful.

Kvothe wakes up after the best night ever. We talk about how Kvothe is affected by Felurian’s aura, morning-after feelings, and the present tense in the past.

Kvothe catches Felurian, and loses his V-card as he falls into Fae. We discuss the transportative quality of the sex they have, what it means for your first time to be with a Fae queen, and the smell of apples.

The party resists her song, but Kvothe chooses to chase Felurian into Fae. We debate the different characters choices to resist or follow Felurian, and tread the cursed ground of Queer Discourse. What does it say about Kvothe that he chooses to enter Fae? We also think about how Kvothe self-identifies, and how the explicitly fantastical nature of this sequence sets it apart from the rest of the book’s relationship with the supernatural.

Felurian sings an eerily-familiar fae song. We discuss how Felurian’s dialogue is set apart in the text, the sensory details that signal the otherworldly, and rash wontons tarrying.

Kvothe’s party encounter Felurian in a moonlit grove. We discuss how this incident takes us into a realm of story, the sorrows of old Marten, and then give you a peek behind the scenes of our merchandising workshopping process.

Kvothe’s party emerge from the swamp and into a moonlit grove. We discuss the storybook quality of what is happening, how to do smell-based flirting, and how to favour a leg.

The party cuts overland and Tempi starts correcting Kvothe’s Ketan. We get real for a moment, then talk about what’s up with the swamp and the lines between the world and the Fae.
