@[Vale:23170] of Butterflies TL;DR: Mischievous and greedy troupes that pickpocket and cause trouble whereever they perform have collectively given all troupes a bad name, including the Edema Ruh in some places, despite their good reputation. - - - - - - There are many performing caravans in the Name of the Wind universe, and the majority have collectively given nomadic performers a bad reputation. The reason for this being that they cause or induce unnecessary and typically damaging (to the town) commotion, and many tend to pickpocket as well: some of the caravan members will perform while the others run off and do all manners of unsavory deeds involving looting. The Edema Ruh are a more revered collection of troupes, each caravan considered to be a family (occasionally by blood, Kvothe is with his parents in his troupe). They have traditions that keep them close and tight-knit. The common person is still skeptical of the Edema Ruh, though. Some troupes can be funded by a wealthy patron (Kvothe's by Baron Greyfallow), where they can use their name and wear their colors to ensure that suspicion is overcome everywhere they go, as well as receive funding and travel freely under his/her protection. Despite this, many are still wary of the Edema Ruh. |
