BAST – Character Profile and "The Lightning Tree"
Manage episode 340482546 series 3392555
Charming, mysterious, and slightly scary Bast is up next! This is a PACKED episode, so put on your best boots and find some elderberry liquor or a little jar of brined olives to snack on while you listen. And be warned, this one is not for young ears. I swear a lot. Leave the babes at home.
In the first part of this episode, we go through our seven things as usual and I discuss a variety of theories and questions about Bastas, son of Remmen. What’s his true motive with Kvothe? When and why did they meet in the first place? And what’s going on in the basement of the Waystone?
The second part is a bit of a freewheeling readthrough, which is something I haven’t done! “The Lightning Tree” is a wonderful I had a great time talking about the plot: Bast’s machinations, the magic, milkmaids, and more from his day around the lightning tree. We talk about Bast’s changing desires, stories of Crazy Martin, and some of the little worldbuilding nuggets Pat sprinkles in. Plus, I read some good passages and do a bit of lazy accent work.
