Patrick Rothfuss Quotes

On his first hand he wore rings of stone,Iron, Amber, Wood and Bone.There were rings unseen on his second hand,One was blood in a flowing band,One was air all whisper thin,And the ring of ice had a flaw within.Full faintly shone the ring of flame,And the final ring was without name.
