The Name of the Wind: Chapters 23-27

This week we pick up with Kvothe after he hit rock bottom by getting beaten up during the holiday season. He turns things around by setting up a Scooby-Doo style trap for his nemesis, "Pike the Goon" and by collecting two awesome stories. The first is a religion-origin story from Trapis, but there certainly are a lot of parallels with the second story, which is the tale of Lanre he hears from Skarpi. The numbers six and seven come up a lot in both stories, and we try to guess where Lanre got his naming powers from. All this helps put things in motion for Our Boy Kvothe so he can get out of this awful city.
