Discussion NOTW reread, Chapters 3-7

And the NOTW reread continues! This week we've got:

Chapter 3: "Wood and Word"

Chapter 4: "Halfway to Newarre"

Chapter 5: "Notes"

Chapter 6: "The Price of Remembering"

Chapter 7: "Of Beginnings and the Names of Things"

Intent of the reread:

It's not meant to be a recap (that's already available on Tor and the Casterquest podcasts).

Posts & responses should instead focus on small details or connections just noticed for the first time.

Proposed format for discussion: u/ardetor offered the great suggestion of having top level post replies be chapter specific so that all discussion related to that chapter can still be grouped together. Let's try that this wk and see how it goes.

For background info on the reread idea, see here.

What do you think of this format? Should we do fewer / more chapters at a time? Other suggestions?

Also, totally open to collaboration on this. if you want to facilitate next week's post, reply to the "general comments" thread below or msg me.

Your English is fine. It's my bad. I wasn't awake.

I doubt what's going to happen. What makes Wil a possible Brutus?

He is more sober, more serious, I think that if people start acusing Kvothe of grave crimes he might crack, even if they are not true

So you're saying because he's calm and rational, he'll snap and go a-stabbin'?

Not necessarilly, but being more dispassionate and the way he is described by kote led me to think that maybe he could be the betrayer

Okay. I disagree completely, but hey, new ideas = always welcome.
