Tarbean Years

Three years of poverty after the loss of the troupe.

Kvothe's years in Tarbean follow the massacre of his troupe. Alone and traumatised, he lives for three years in the city's slums as a beggar and pickpocket.

Lore & Background

What ends this period is a storyteller's tale of Lanre's fall and his transformation into Lord Haliax of the Chandrian. Before Kvothe can question him, the Church arrests the storyteller for heresy. Kvothe decides to enter the university, whose Archives may hold what he needs, gathers enough money for clothes and travel, and leaves.
