It Was Night Again the Ways to Neinn Lay in Silence and It Was
Patrick Rothfuss > Quotes > Quotable Quote
"It was night again. The Waystone Inn lay in silence, and it was a silence of 3 parts.
The nearly obvious role was a hollow, echoing serenity, made by things that were lacking. If there had been a air current it would have sighed through the trees, set the inn'due south sign creaking on its hooks, and brushed the silence downwards the road like trailing autumn leaves. If there had been a crowd, even a handful of men inside the inn, they would take filled the silence with conversation and laughter, the clatter and clamor ane expects from a drinking house during the dark hours of night. If at that place had been music...but no, of grade there was no music. In fact there were none of these things, and so the silence remained.
Inside the Waystone a pair of men huddled at ane corner of the bar. They drank with quiet determination, avoiding serious discussions of troubling news. In doing this they added a small, sullen silence to the larger, hollow one. Information technology made an blend of sorts, a counterpoint.
The third silence was not an easy thing to discover. If you lot listened for an 60 minutes, you might begin to feel it in the wooden flooring underfoot and in the rough, splintering barrels behind the bar. Information technology was in the weight of the black stone hearth that held the heat of a long dead fire. It was in the boring back and along of a white linen cloth rubbing forth the grain of the bar. And it was in the easily of the man who stood there, polishing a stretch of mahogany that already gleamed in the lamplight.
The homo had true-ruby hair, red every bit flame. His optics were dark and distant, and he moved with the subtle certainty that comes from knowing many things.
The Waystone was his, but as the 3rd silence was his. This was appropriate, as it was the greatest silence of the three, wrapping the others within itself. It was deep and broad as autumn'southward ending. It was heavy as a great river-smooth stone. It was the patient, cut-flower sound of a human who is waiting to die."
