I agree... and you play the beautiful Denna, perfect ears, bent knows and all. I love your portrayal and would love to see this song in the series. Here's to hoping that Ed Sheeran plays Kvothe.
Cinder killed kvothe's troop because his father used True Deep names of the seven. You can speak those names and still get away with it if you do not speak them again in 1000 days and 1000 miles. So denna used only their common names, and her life wasn't at any risk. That's what I remember though it's been a while since I read the books
That's the thing: she wrote it so well, capturing the whole story in so few words, that those extra verses aren't needed. (I too want to hear them anyway, though.)
@@passiondpete1624 I never said lanre was Cinder I said that Cinder wanted to write this song to have a famous song that doesn't tell the truth and therefore hides the chandrian even further. If he were to write or have written a song telling the truth about Lanre Haliax would have killed him and Denna
It never ceases to amaze me when I see the creativity of a great novel series inspiring the artistic nature in the very people that find themselves drawn in.
What _really_ makes it hit hard is the context, though. The book's "Four Doors of the Mind" -- the ways we cope with pain -- are Sleeping, Forgetting, Madness, and Death. From the earlier line in this song, "Unable to Die, to Forget, or to Sleep..." Denied the 4th, 2nd, and 1st doors, can we blame him for falling through the only one left open to him? "...Lanre was driven to Madness and grief." When Haliax stops Cinder from tormenting little Kvothe, _"'Send him to the soft and painless blanket of his sleep.'_ The cool voice caught slightly on the last word, as if it were difficult to say." Damn right it were! I personally know what it's like to suffer through a bout of insomnia for six *hours.* Dude has been in that state, unable to catch a single "Z", for *Six. Thousand. Years.*
@@BassLouder Damn right. I'd read the book at least 3 times (kinda lost track by now) before hearing this song, but I hadn't made the connection between the 4 Doors and Haliax's curse, until this line in this song beat me over the head with it.
i read this book years ago and found the song while i wass reading the book, i listened to it sometimes while reading and the lines fit perfectly to the book i was amazed how goodly it was written and how good it was composed as a song. Especially that part. Truly a work of art.
Oh man I only just stumbled onto this, it is stunning. You can imagine the anguish Kvothe felt at hearing such a beautiful song that was so wrong to him.
I think a good headcanon would be that Denna's song was *exactly* like this. It makes Kvothe's reaction (even more) immature and unreasonable: what she says is actually perfectly accurate to Scarpi's version of the story; he just doesn't like the angle from which she romanticizes it. "But she calls Lanre a hero!"? He *was* a hero, except at the end. "She's too sympathetic to him"? The essence of tragedy is that the tragic figure is a sympathetic character; otherwise you might as well just be reading the news. (Also: if he thinks the song is about Lanre, that just shows how little he knows about women.)
@@voidstarq its not a good head cannon because denna called it mirinitel, not myr tyriniel and denna does make lanre out to be a hero. "he burned that wretched land" so yes, she does make him out as a hero, she even makes the act of burning an entire city seem heroic. so she makes out lanre to be a hero, which he is not. and Kvothes reaction is absolutely not "immature and unreasonable" the girl made his parents murderers sound like tragic heroes, he had every right to be mad
This actually made me cry. Saying this is beautiful doesn't do what you've done here justice. Someone needs to send this video to Patrick Rothfuss, I could see them using this in the TV show, maybe you could work on the music for the show or something.
I am a soldier in the US Marine Corps, when I was deployed in Afghanistan I would lay awake many nights in our barracks quarters, missing home and depressed. I would listen to your music and it would put my heart at ease. Thank you for helping me through the sleepless nights.
Geçmişi hatırlatıyor bu şarkı bana. Acı ama güzel olan günleri. Bu seriyi okuduğum için şanslıyım. Rothfuss,şu lanet kitabı yaz da okuyalım artık,aklımızı aldın.
@@deanaryapotter3530 kitabı unuttum ben ya burdaki sözlerden çok az hatırlıyorum karakterleri ve bağlantılarını hatırlamıyorum bile diyebilirim. çok aşırı iyi bir seriydi ama maalesef kitap bir türlü yazılmadı. o kadar çok kitap, seri okudum bilim kurgudan tut fantastik romanlara Asimovdan Philip K Dicke, Ursuladan Tolkienin yüzüklerin efendisine beni bu kadar etkileyen, atmosferi bu kadar farklı olup okuyucuyu içine çeken başka bir seri daha okumadım arkadaş
Goosebumps! These books are so close and dear to me that this was very emotional! I haven't felt this personal and emotional about a ficticious world since I was a kid.
I came across this song by mere accident, and it adapts the story of Lanre and Lyra in such a beautiful way!! I'm currently rereading the books for, i think, the fourth time and again and again I am struck by their beauty And your voice is simply marvellous!! I'll keep an eye on you from now on ;)
I must say. You have a lovely voice. More than that. Your voice is like the kiss of the breeze on a warm summer night. It is the warm hug of a loved one on the winter. This is the first song of yours that I heard, but I simply devoured the others, specially Vargaflicka. You are the second person I subscribe. I hope to see much more of your marvelous work =)
I'm not going to lie. if and when they come out with the tv series, and if they take somewhat of a backside lore approach for some of the main characters. kind of like how they did arawyn in lord of the rings, and in the deathly hollows in harry potter, I couldn't see why not a beautiful, evoking piece like this wouldn't get incorporated. keep doing this and try and market yourself for the upcoming series. I sense great things for your work and notw.
At the very least they could use it for when Denna actually plays the song for the first time. Wait, shit, they can't. She says Myr Tariniel, but she had the wrong name in the book.
I have finished The Narrow road and was in a mood to listen to this once again. 9 years. I have found Peter Watts as my new hero of SF. What Patrick is to F Peter is to S ;)
Ésta sería una traducción aproximada al español: Nuestro héroe de canciones e historias sin contar Él no peleó por gloria, por plata o por oro, Él mató por las manos que sostuvieron su corazón; Por Lyra, quién lo amó hasta que la muerte los separó. Las lágrimas de Lyra limpiaron la sangre de su espada, Ella llamó el nombre del único que adoró; Las cadenas de la muerte que lo sujetaban entonces se rompieron, Una vez más con su amor, Lanre despertó. Pero la Muerte es un tirano que no puede ser negado. Lyra calló, palideció y murió. Su destino es incierto para los que quedamos. Es la consecuencia grabada en miseria y dolor. Incapaz de morir, de olvidar o dormir, Lanre fue llevado a la locura y a la aflicción. Myr Tariniel ardió por sus manos, Misericordia por las personas de esa desgraciada ciudad. Selitos gritó y rasgó sus ojos Enloquecido por la soberbia, maldijo por los cielos: “Lanre traidor, maldigo tu nombre, ¡Ojalá vivas siempre en sombra y vergüenza!” Nuestro héroe de canciones e historias sin contar Ahora deambula los caminos solo en el frío. Él sueña con las manos que sostuvieron su corazón, Por Lyra, quién lo amó hasta que la muerte los separó.
When I hear your songs I always think of some magic, keltic forest with people in a camp and a bard singing... Those are such peaceful pictures, paintet by your wonderful voice and music!
I found this yesterday, and already I've watched it over and over again, probably more than 50 times. Seriously. This is so beautiful, quite simple melody and yet so beautiful. I can totally see Denna singing this. Thank you for sharing this song with us. I've got it in my mind all day. I think we all want to hear you sing The Lay Of Sir Savien Traliard, even though you may not dare to try to write it by yourself. But with a little help of Pat for the lyrics, and someone singing, you will make it perfect. Suggest it for him. We would love it. I promise.
Oh, well, I understand, of course. Then do like this: Just wait until the song is done and we all can hear it, then do a cover of it. And everyone is happy. ;)
My. Good. Lord. How have I not seen this before? The feeling I get by listening to this... I cannot put it in words... I feel like I'm in utmost peace and will be forever. Thank you.
This song reached directly to my heart and soul, it hits different after reading book I listened this song more than 50 times till now❣❣❣❣ Thanks for this amazing song
Oh my.. I can't say how much I loved finding this song. Is AMASING, awesome. God.. I feel like crying. You know, when in the book this song is described with these words: "[...]she moved through the city like some faerie creature. She walked roads no one else could see, and it made her music wild and strange and free." And that's exactly how your song feels. Sometimes is scary to read or listen fanmade's works.. cause you may find something you really disagree with.. but this is a piece of artwork! Really, thanks for sharing!
Poul Erik Holmelund Thank you so much, Poul. I actually did email it to him, but considering how much fanmail he gets, I understand if he hasn't got time to read it for quite a while yet.
At first I felt you were singing from your throat, but then my thoughts faded to a simple awe that only grew as the song went on. It felt like the hairs on my arm prickled as the eerie feel of the music washed over me, and then sadness. I love it. It's beautiful.
I just had a super crazy idea. "Her fate left unknown to we who remain. It's consequence etched in missery and pain." What if Lyra is Auri. Living in missery and pain, broken, always regretting she broke the law of balance. Witch would explain why Auri is so obsessed with treating things their proper way and not letting her wantings change the world...again.
lyra never regretted anything, she jus died, simple as that, the story is literally about lyras lover going crazy with power but still not able to bring her back. auri and lyra have nothing in common but mayb a few subleties
I really enjoy that you did this while sitting outside as it captures the scene perfectly in the book. Naming the song was too blatant and I had to assume someone had created for us to hear. Thank you.
If movies come out some day, and i think they will, these artist like herself should be included in someway, they deserve to be part of it, merciful tehlu what beautiful song you sang, my cheeks didn't favour teardrops for more than i can remeber, more than i can wish.
I have listened to/watched this so many times, it's one of my favorite songs ever. You have a fantastic voice and the music is perfect. Makes me feel like I'm hearing it in the world of Name of the Wind. Thank you for making this!
This is incredible. This goes beyond all expectations. I hope Patrick sees this and recognizes you for your incredible talent. This should be seen by all KKC fans. Just, wow!!!
I'm almost crying. I have no words to describe how amazing this song is. I wonder if this how Kvothe and his audience at the Eolium felt after performing The Lay of Sir Savien Traliard. God, excellent job, I'm still shivering!.
This is absolutely marvellous...beautiful voice and music. This now makes me understand how music can move a person...and how brilliant kvothe must be to earn talent pipes...
I'm almost finished with Book 2...It is incredible to hear Rothfuss' stories and songs come to life and inspire others. I'm excited for what the future holds for this series and world!
You made me cry this morning while I was playing Skyrim. So I came to cry some more here. Your songs are absolutely beautiful, and this is exactly how I imagined Denna's.
Just stumbled on that while searching for music to inspire me in writting a tabletop rpg campain. Men, did it helped! Didn't know I could love a song that much!
You rend my heart with this. You break me to tears. You make me lie down softly in the grass and sigh. Swoon. Cry. Quietly. Just like the books. Thank you. 🥰🙏🥰
I was remembering that I found and listened to it when I was 13 - the first time I read The Name of The Wind. It was brilliant and I was surprised for the quality - I didn't expect such a great performance and a great music by fanmade. Now I'm almost 19 and I'm reading The Name of The Wind for the 5th time. The books never gets boring (since my 1st read it was my favourite). I'm really grateful for you to have done this. I always come back here like 2 times a year and I can say it's nostalgic for me lol
I've said it before and I'll say it again, this is truely amazing, you're truely amazing. If they ever make a king killer chronicle movie you should totally audition. You've got the look, you've got the voice, you've got the skills and you're familiar with the material.
Merrigan it's beena while since I listened to you music, to my shame. On a good note, you continue to enchant me with your music...and from one of my favorite book series. Every bit a match for Kvoth.
Around 2:09, your darker harmony gave me goosebumps! Your music is always so... I don't even know how to describe it! It speaks to the soul! Great job :)
after rereading the books for the thousandth time it occurred to me that people may have made music inspired by the book.. and now i am kicking myself for not typing kvothe into youtube sooner.
The first thing I did upon hearing this was find out how fans can reach Patrick Rothfuss and sent him an email with this link. This is absolutely stunning and I really hope he sees it. Please never abandon your music, that's a lover who will always stay true to you. I love this.
You did the song perfectly it is as if it leaped from the book. You deserve the silver talent pipes :).
Yay!! :D
I agree... and you play the beautiful Denna, perfect ears, bent knows and all. I love your portrayal and would love to see this song in the series. Here's to hoping that Ed Sheeran plays Kvothe.
I would rather him not lol. Only thing that would add up is Ginger playing Ginger
Never sex what about his loot playing skills
That's, like, more than all of Qvothe's tuitions put together. O.O
I bet this girl was killed by Cinder within a few days of recording this.
Hahah! One might think so, but it's a pro-Chandrian song, isn't it? One Cinder would like? ;)
@@Merriganmusic It's praising Lanre though... Cinder came across as the type who would not care about praise given to anyone but himself.
But wouldn’t it be Lanre who hears his name.She doesn’t sing Cinder’s name so he wouldn’t know
Cinder killed kvothe's troop because his father used True Deep names of the seven. You can speak those names and still get away with it if you do not speak them again in 1000 days and 1000 miles. So denna used only their common names, and her life wasn't at any risk. That's what I remember though it's been a while since I read the books
I wish it was 15 minutes longer and had 12 more verses.
That's the thing: she wrote it so well, capturing the whole story in so few words, that those extra verses aren't needed. (I too want to hear them anyway, though.)
Someone has been singing entirely the wrong sorts of songs.
Actually, it's entirely the right sort of song, since Denna wrote the song for Cinder
@@ancorgarciaalvarezso we think, never know 😊
Lanre is not cinder
If anything Haliax is lanre
@@passiondpete1624 I never said lanre was Cinder I said that Cinder wanted to write this song to have a famous song that doesn't tell the truth and therefore hides the chandrian even further.

Adam Russell you're so, so so right
I think it is too early to judge it great. But it is engaging.
You should check out Clamavi de Profoundis (or something like that is the name of that channel)
amazing... they will sing it for a hundred years and more. but it's wrong. you need to change it. lanre was no hero... he was a monster.
He was hero before he went mad
In the books they just focus after he went mad
amazing!
@@No.Parking True humanity might have been extinct if not for him. So he is both a great hero and a great monter.
@@No.Parking it was a quote. This is what Kvothe told Denna after hearing the song for the first (and presumably only) time
@@katethe5th555 very far from a quote but yeah lol
"Lanre you traitor, cursed by thy name, may you live always in shadows and shame!" i feel that

Can I cry? Denna, are you? Merrigan you made me feel like if I were Kvothe hearing to Denna's song.
Are you, Denna?*
you dont want to be kvothe in there, trust me. lol
Denna was calling his parents' murderer a hero -_-
Yes you can cry.
İ am gonna cry. Fans are here
i wonder if rothfuss has seen this, i really hope so.
I do too, I think he's going to like it.
I really do hope so. let's all tweet him out.
Make it happen !!!!!!!
It would be funny if answered your comment
2022 and this is Still the best song from the King Killer Chronicles. You are legendary.
This actually made me cry. Saying this is beautiful doesn't do what you've done here justice. Someone needs to send this video to Patrick Rothfuss, I could see them using this in the TV show, maybe you could work on the music for the show or something.
Coleton Donaldson so true.
i think he all ready watch it if i recall well
That the tiny God's (and Patrick) hear you
I wonder if Patrick Rothfuss has heard this yet. It's so lovely!
I am a soldier in the US Marine Corps, when I was deployed in Afghanistan I would lay awake many nights in our barracks quarters, missing home and depressed. I would listen to your music and it would put my heart at ease. Thank you for helping me through the sleepless nights.
Patrick is a good writer regardless of his speed...hope doors of stone will be worth the wait
dammit Patrick i want book 3 already
5 months later. Still nothing!
Keanu Francis and another 5, nothing yet...
Another five, guys...
I hope not to be coming back in two months
Gotta keep it running then
Another 5 months later.. nothing
Have you ever considered doing another song from the King Killer Chronicles series? Perhaps you can collab with someone and do The Lay of Sir Savien
I was just about to ask the same question and propose a potential duet . King killer=best series
You make me want to read Kingkiller again.

+Alma Pedreñø Best compliment ever.
+Merrigan You're welcome! 💕
My little girl was named Lyra and she is owning the name. 12 years and I'll always love her x
Very nice name
Every year in March I listen to audiobooks. And when I get to this part of the books I listen and listen again to this beautifully haunting song.
I love how you made Lanre seem like a hero, something Denna did when she made the song, maddening Kvothe. Pure genius.

I think my Heart skipped a beat. I just am now reading these Books and I am in LOVE with them. With all of my soul Thank You for this...
I've been listening this song for ages. Thanks for bringing the magic to our mortal realm. You are our Denna without a doubt.
When I hear your songs I always think of some magic, keltic forest with people in a camp and a bard singing... Those are such peaceful pictures, paintet by your wonderful voice and music!

Oh Merciful tehlu...
I'm in love.

This is stunning. I’m blown away by your skills and beautiful voice. Simply beautiful, I’m at a loss for words
This song keeps bringing me back. I just keep listening to it. It's so good.
absolutely beautiful voice
I'm almost crying. I have no words to describe how amazing this song is. I wonder if this how Kvothe and his audience at the Eolium felt after performing The Lay of Sir Savien Traliard.
God, excellent job, I'm still shivering!.
Wonderful performance of the ballad, thank you!
Pls make more tunes from kingkiller chronicles. This literally made me shed tears, its so beautiful. ;'c
Esta canción me da mucha tranquilidad y felicidad desde hace muchos años, nunca me cansaré de escucharla♡
This is absolutely marvellous...beautiful voice and music. This now makes me understand how music can move a person...and how brilliant kvothe must be to earn talent pipes...
A fantastic song about an incredible book
I'm almost finished with Book 2...It is incredible to hear Rothfuss' stories and songs come to life and inspire others. I'm excited for what the future holds for this series and world!
I think that I may have heard this song more than 30 times. A piece of Kvothe's story is alive in your video :')
This is way beautiful! Our music is our soul, thanks for being brave enough to show the world your music!
You made me cry this morning while I was playing Skyrim. So I came to cry some more here. Your songs are absolutely beautiful, and this is exactly how I imagined Denna's.
Just stumbled on that while searching for music to inspire me in writting a tabletop rpg campain. Men, did it helped! Didn't know I could love a song that much!
It's like the book is coming to life! Beautiful!
This is amazing, and actually very close to how I imagined Denna look while singing
You rend my heart with this. You break me to tears. You make me lie down softly in the grass and sigh. Swoon. Cry. Quietly. Just like the books. Thank you. 🥰🙏🥰
I was remembering that I found and listened to it when I was 13 - the first time I read The Name of The Wind. It was brilliant and I was surprised for the quality - I didn't expect such a great performance and a great music by fanmade. Now I'm almost 19 and I'm reading The Name of The Wind for the 5th time. The books never gets boring (since my 1st read it was my favourite).
I'm really grateful for you to have done this. I always come back here like 2 times a year and I can say it's nostalgic for me lol
Wow. Build me a time machine and fantasy machine and this is exactly how I had the song in my mind. Beautiful!!
This is amazing, congratulations! As a KingKiller fan, I've been left speechless by the beauty of your song.
wow ... so wonderful, i can imagine Denna singing this, it´s heartbreaking ... lovely work Merrigan !!
your voice can make someone even with the stoneheart to break
well done
I've said it before and I'll say it again, this is truely amazing, you're truely amazing.
If they ever make a king killer chronicle movie you should totally audition. You've got the look, you've got the voice, you've got the skills and you're familiar with the material.
Oh, everything about this is absolutely beautiful! Such a lovely melody and your arrangement is great! I love watching you play, it's so enchanting!
Hey Merryberry, I found Merrigan over your channel, so thank you, for that and also for your own awesome musik! ^^
MerryberryMusic Thank you so much sweetling.
Merrigan it's beena while since I listened to you music, to my shame. On a good note, you continue to enchant me with your music...and from one of my favorite book series.
Every bit a match for Kvoth.
found my Aloine.
Around 2:09, your darker harmony gave me goosebumps! Your music is always so... I don't even know how to describe it! It speaks to the soul! Great job :)
This is simply magical by any standard. I applaud you for this is no easy task my fair lady
Wel done
Love Ayla
after rereading the books for the thousandth time it occurred to me that people may have made music inspired by the book.. and now i am kicking myself for not typing kvothe into youtube sooner.
wat a amazing work I am wonderfully with it. you really have a great intentions with music.
the best way i could remind lanre's story. glad to find this
Mother of Denna, this is just PERFECT, thanks for make this real :(
Im reading Name of the Wind as well. I actually squee'd when I saw this, thank you Merrigan
I'm currently listening through your work. It's beautiful and soothing. Thank you for something that feels like a little piece of heaven :)
very talented young lady I see a bright future ahead
This is just amazing. I am speechless.. It's exactly what I imagined when I read the book.
Fantastic work!
The first thing I did upon hearing this was find out how fans can reach Patrick Rothfuss and sent him an email with this link. This is absolutely stunning and I really hope he sees it. Please never abandon your music, that's a lover who will always stay true to you. I love this.
Anyone send alredy?
You're our real life Denna, your voice is gorgeous
