A bit of сontext : Patrick Rothfuss released the second Kingkiller book in 2011 and kept fans waiting for a decade. Then, in 2021, he raised cash from his fanbase, swearing he'd drop a new chapter. It is now 2026. Fans have been waiting fifteen years in total, the money is gone, and that promised chapter was a complete lie...fkn scam

----------

Welcome to the tavern

Pull up a chair

Listen to the music fading in the air

But keep your expectations low!

-----

Wiping the bar down at the waystone inn

Hiding a legend right under the skin

Chasing a girl with a crooked nose

Following wherever the wild wind blows

Calling down lightning breaking the lute

Hunting the chandrian seeking the truth

Flipping the pages drinking the lore

Asking the barkeep to pour a bit more

-----

Getting to the climax feeling the rush

Hearing the silence the absolute hush

Turning to chapter one hundred and ten

Swearing you'll never trust authors again!

-----

So don't bite down on that shiny hook!

Cause Pat Rothfuss never finished the book!

Waiting for the "Doors of Stone" to swing wide

Got ten years of patience rotting inside

Yeah screaming at the shelf taking a look

Cause Pat Rothfuss never finished the book!

-----

Serving the wine on a silver tray

Hiding the scars that give you away

Watching the scholar steal the bloody crown

Burning the entire university down

Paying three hundred grand for the Door!

Six-sixty-six, let the stretch goals be known!

Year twenty-twenty-six, pages are blank...

While he’s laughing his bearded ass off to the bank!

-----

Losing our minds as the rumors are fed

Realizing the trilogy's probably DEAD!

-----

So don't bite down on that shiny hook!

Cause Pat Rothfuss never finished the book!

Ignoring the deadlines and ghosting his fans

Him and George Martin are probably friends!

Yeah screaming at the shelf taking a look

Cause Pat Rothfuss never finished the fucking book!

-----

Scrolling the subreddits fueling the hate

Arguing daily defending the wait

Writing out shitty new fanfic outlines

Searching his streams for the tiniest signs

Typing out theories till fingers go numb

Feeling completely abandoned and dumb

Screaming at monitors crossing the line

While he leaves the whole fucking fandom behind!

-----

Grab another story clear out your head

Kingkiller is sleeping, Kingkiller is dead

Leave the waystone inn let go of the hook

Cause Patrick will never finish the book!

-----

He won't finish the book!

Read something else!

He won't finish the book!

-----

He won't finish the book!

Read something else!

He won't finish the book!

HEY!
