Breu Resum
Aquest vídeo explora la teoria que Kvothe és un descendent directe d'Iax, un poderós modelador de la història de Temerant. Això explicaria les seves habilitats excepcionals, la seva tendència a nomenar i el seu destí tràgic. El vídeo també examina la història de Jax, la creació de Fae, la connexió entre Kvothe i la família Lackless, i la importància de la porta Lackless i la caixa Loeclos.
- Kvothe podria ser descendent d'Iax.
- La història de Jax i la creació de Fae són clau per entendre el món de Kvothe.
- La família Lackless i els seus secrets tenen un paper important en la història.
El vídeo planteja la hipòtesi que Kvothe és un descendent d'Iax, un dels éssers més poderosos de Temerant, conegut per iniciar la guerra de la creació i estar tancat darrere de les Portes de Pedra. Es suggereix que la imprudència de Kvothe podria portar a l'alliberament d'Iax. El vídeo promet explorar diverses teories relacionades amb Iax, Jax, la creació de Fae, la rima Lackless i la connexió de Kvothe amb la família Lackless.
El vídeo està patrocinat per "Bloodline: Heroes of Lithis", un joc de rol de fantasia amb un estil artístic 3D on els jugadors poden construir el seu propi regne i col·leccionar campions. Una característica única del joc és la capacitat de crear campions llegendaris combinant llinatges de diferents races. L'actualització de Nadal introdueix el nou clan Lycan Gold Tongue. Els jugadors poden obtenir un campió Gold Tongue gratuïtament participant en l'esdeveniment de Nadal i lluitar a la nova guerra de gremis.
Iax era un poderós modelador de l'època de la guerra de la creació, milers d'anys abans dels esdeveniments del llibre. Durant aquest temps, hi havia els que "caminaven amb els ulls oberts" i coneixien els noms profunds de les coses. La guerra va ser entre els "coneixedors", que coneixien els noms de totes les coses i vivien en harmonia amb elles, i els "modeladors", que canviaven les coses dels quals coneixien els noms veritables. Els modeladors van crear el regne Fae i cadascun va fer una estrella per al cel buit. Iax, insatisfet amb només una estrella, va utilitzar la seva habilitat per portar la lluna al Fae, fent que canviés entre els dos mons, cosa que va provocar la guerra de la creació. Es diu que Iax va parlar amb el Cthaeh abans de robar la lluna.
La història de Jax, un noi desafortunat que s'enamora de la lluna, és una altra versió de la història d'Iax. Els noms canvien amb el temps o depenent de qui explica la història. Jax és probablement el fundador de la família Lackless, coneguda per la seva desgràcia. Jax vivia en una casa trencada i va fer una aposta amb un llauner: si trobava alguna cosa als seus paquets que el fes feliç, el llauner li donaria tot, però si no, Jax li donaria la seva casa trencada. Jax no va trobar res que el fes feliç fins que, en veure la lluna, va decidir que tenir-la el faria feliç. El llauner no li podia donar la lluna, així que va perdre l'aposta i va donar tots els seus paquets a Jax, però Jax va decidir donar-li la seva casa trencada al llauner.
La casa trencada de Jax podria ser la cosa inferior de la Universitat. La Gran Carretera de Pedra connecta la Universitat amb les Muntanyes de l'Extrem Orient, el camí que va seguir Jax. El llauner no va poder arreglar la casa trencada, així que va construir una universitat a sobre. Un dels articles del llauner era un llibre de secrets. Kvothe troba un llibre anomenat "El llibre dels secrets" als arxius, un llibre estrany sobre criatures de contes de fades amb un passatge misteriós sobre els Chandrian. Auri també té un llibre titulat "Llibre de secrets" a la cosa inferior.
Jax va a les muntanyes i troba un ermità descalç que l'ajuda a obrir el tercer paquet del llauner, que conté un tros de fusta doblegat, una flauta de pedra i una caixa de ferro. Jax utilitza el tros de fusta doblegat per crear la casa plegable, que té diferents estacions a les diferents habitacions i un cel desconegut. Molts creuen que la casa plegable és el regne Fae. La casa tenia moltes portes i finestres, que representen el regne Fae i com les pedres grises de Temerant actuen com a portes al Fae. A la torre més alta de la casa, Jax toca la flauta i la lluna baixa cap a ell. Parla amb ella i l'enganya perquè li doni el seu nom, Ludis, i atrapa part d'aquest nom a la seva caixa de ferro, fent que la lluna viatgi entre el cel i la seva casa plegable.
L'ermità descalç podria ser el filòsof Teccam, famós per la cita sobre les tres coses que temen els homes savis. Alguns creuen que l'ermità és el Cthaeh, ja que Iax va parlar amb el Cthaeh abans de robar la lluna. Quan Jax va començar a desplegar la casa plegada, l'ermità no volia que ho fes a la cova, així que Jax va anar una mica més enllà per obrir la casa plegada, però era molt més gran del que esperava, així que potser quan va desplegar la casa i va fer el regne Fae, es va estendre fins a la cova de l'ermità i va atrapar l'ermità al Fae. Una altra possibilitat és que el Cthaeh podria ser el mateix llauner. Els llauners tenen una manera de predir el que necessitaràs en el futur. El llauner és qui va donar a Jax la casa plegada, la flauta i la caixa, tot el que necessitava per robar la lluna.
Kvothe reflecteix Jax en molts aspectes. Originalment, no tenia la paciència per aprendre a nomenar d'Elodin, cosa que paral·lela la interacció de Jax amb l'ermità. Jax era massa impacient per escoltar i massa impacient en desplegar la casa plegada. Jax recorda la imprudència general que és el principal defecte de caràcter de Kvothe d'actuar sense pensar. Kvothe perseguint Denna reflecteix Jax i la lluna en constant canvi. Auri també pot representar la lluna, on Jax toca la flauta i la lluna ve a ell, Kvothe toca el llaüt i Auri apareix.
Iax té l'ull fosc i canviant. Els ulls de Kvothe es descriuen com a foscos i canviants, cosa que suggereix que també té l'ull fosc i canviant. Els seus ulls es tornen foscos quan està enfadat. Això suggereix que és fill del gran modelador.
Kvothe és un Lackless. La seva mare era una dona noble que va ser emportada pel seu pare, però mai va parlar de la seva família i només va visitar els seus parents una vegada quan era molt jove. Lady Meluan Lackless és una noble vintesa i l'única hereva de les terres Lackless. Kvothe ajuda Meluan a casar-se. Meluan odia l'Edema Ruh perquè la seva germana, Natalia, va fugir amb un soldat. Kvothe recorda a Meluan a la seva mare. La mare de Kvothe, Loreien, és Natalia Lackless.
La cançó que el seu pare va escriure diu: "Val la pena la meva vida fer que la meva dona no sigui Natalia Lackless". A més, Arliden li diu a Loreien: "Vas dormir amb algun déu errant fa dotze anys?". Hi ha molts moments al llarg dels llibres on es fa referència a Kvothe com a déu. Quan Kvothe canta la rima infantil sobre Lady Lackless, la seva mare es mostra inflexible que no l'hauria de cantar. Això podria ser perquè ella és Lady Lackless. La rima descriu set coses necessàries per obrir la porta Lackless. Hi ha una inundació que es manté darrere de la porta. Iax es manté darrere de les Portes de Pedra, que es creu que són les mateixes que la porta Lackless. El sol que porta la sang al poema no només parla de la sang d'un Lackless, sinó específicament de la sang d'Iax, el fill d'Iax. La rima esmenta que Lady Lackless té un marit associat a la porta Lackless. Iax és aquest marit i Kvothe és el fill que porta la sang.
Per viatjar més enllà de la porta Lackless, has d'estar somiant. En el seu somni, està lúcida i projectant-se astralment darrere de la porta Lackless, on va tenir un fill amb Iax en secret. Això reflectiria la història de Perial, que va quedar embarassada a través del seu somni i va donar a llum Menda, que és la forma mortal del déu Talus. Perial va accedir a la porta Lackless a través d'un camí que no és per viatjar, la cruïlla de Ferinial, on es troben tots els camins del món. Viatjar per les portes mentre dorms és una cosa que ja hem vist a la Crònica del Matareis. Felurian va tenir un somni on va anar darrere de la porta de la Forja i va descobrir que Valeritas era el nom d'un antic rei mort i la seva tomba estava darrere de la porta. Kvothe també va tenir alguns somnis sobre la porta de la Forja, però mai va poder entrar-hi. Després de la massacre de la seva tropa, va tenir un somni on estava envoltat de pedres grises.
Caudicus esmenta que a la part més antiga de les terres Lackless, a la part més antiga de la seva finca ancestral, hi ha una porta secreta, una porta sense mànec ni frontisses. La part més antiga de les terres Lackless seria la Casa Trencada, la llar original de Jax, la cosa inferior. A la part superior de la cosa inferior hi ha la porta de la Forja. Ningú sap què hi ha a l'altra banda. La porta Lackless és la porta de la Forja i també les Portes de Pedra que condueixen al regne on resideix Iax. El Cthaeh va dir a Kvothe que es quedés amb el Mestre i el portaria a la porta de l'Amir. El Mestre va pagar la matrícula de Kvothe per tornar a la Universitat, així que, en cert sentit, el Mestre està portant Kvothe de tornada a la porta de l'Amir. Alguns dels Mestres de la Universitat són Amir i estan encarregats de vigilar la porta de la Forja.
La caixa Lackless és una relíquia familiar de la família Lackless i és una caixa que no té costures, frontisses ni panys i sembla estar feta del mateix tipus de fusta que l'arbre que empresona el Cthaeh. Kvothe suposa que la caixa conté alguna cosa de diversos milers d'anys feta de vidre o pedra. Podria contenir un tros de roca o obsidiana que Selitos va utilitzar per treure's el seu propi ull i lligar Lanre. També podria ser la caixa de Jax i contenir un tros del nom de la lluna o la flauta de Jax. Kvothe sospita que té una escriptura groguenca, un llenguatge de nusos. No és capaç d'escoltar i obrir-la, igual que Jax no va poder obrir el nus a la tercera bossa sense l'ajuda de l'ermità. L'anell de Denna, que també té nusos groguencs, és la clau per obrir la caixa. Les dues versions de la rima Lackless semblen enllaçar la caixa amb la porta Lackless. La combinació d'aquestes dues rimes jugarà un paper important al llibre tres. Kvothe és fill d'Iax i alliberarà el seu pare obrint les Portes de Pedra i alliberant una inundació d'escrals i qualsevol altra cosa.
El veritable nom del cronista és Devan Lochees. Lochees és especulat per molts fans com una branca de la família Lackless. Kvothe coneix per primera vegada el cronista quan està esperant l'escrall a les ruïnes d'una antiga casa en ruïnes, una casa trencada. En aquest capítol, es refereix al cronista com a desafortunat en algunes ocasions. Rothfuss està amagant algunes pistes molt intel·ligents.

0:00 what if I told you koth is a direct descendant of one of the most powerful beings in the history of tamarant the great shaper ex this would explain his high level of skill in certain areas and his penchant for naming it would also explain why his story ends in tragedy why he keeps messing things up and why he doesn't take the time to think before he reacts and that is because he's a luckless lackless just like Jax now ex is the one who started the creation war and is now locked behind the Doors of Stone the third book is conveniently titled The Doors of Stone I believe that koth's greatest Folly is that he's going to set eax free let me explain there's a lot to cover in this video

3:50 who walked with their eyes open they knew all the Deep names of things according to philurian the war was primarily waged between two factions who practiced naming one group called knowers who knew the names of all things but lived in harmony with them and never exerted their Mastery and the other group Shapers Shapers took the art of naming a step further to change that which they knew the true names of creating many new and wondrous things now these vastly different practices led the two factions into conflict the Shapers grew Bolder and more wild while the knowers urged them to stop seeking a place to practice their skill unhindered the Shapers created the feign realm and there each of them made a star which
4:35 they placed into the empty Sky however the greatest shaper ex was unsatisfied with only a star and so he used his ability to pull the moon into the FAE causing it to phase between Both Worlds and it's this action that sparked the creation War now it's said that iak spoke to the cafe day before doing this and the cafe is the malicious creature bound to a tree in the Fey realm it can see all possible Futures with perfect accuracy and Clarity branching out from a single moment it uses this knowledge to cause the worst possible outcomes for as many people as possible it often reveals information that will hurt and traumatize those who speak to it it poisons them so that they go out into the world and cause chaos the Cathay
5:22 spoke with eax before he stole the moon and Landry before he betrayed mere terennial it's possible the chaos going on in the frame story is a result from quoth speaking to the cafe now eax is described as one of the only characters considered a match in power and ability to celatos Lira and alef in scarpy's story he explains how the knowers were nearly defeated in the creation War but during the Battle of draw centaur landray was able to conquer a great Beast and the enemy was shut Beyond the Doors of own and then of course we know that land Ray speaks with the Cathay he's cursed with immortality and becomes haliax and betrays the ergon Empire this leads to the creation of the chandrian and the Amir who opposed them but that enemy who was shut Beyond the Doors of
6:09 Stone is almost certainly eax since Valerian says it was the first and greatest shaper who was shut Beyond the Doors of Stone considering philurian was an eyewitness of this War I think it's pretty fair for us to trust her in this I do think it's interesting how even though ex and the Shapers created the Fey realm philurian doesn't speak of them highly in fact she seems too scared or angry to speak ex's name now we learn of another story about eax but in this one his name is Jax in the ELD Forest foth is told a story by hesp about a luckless boy named Jax who falls in love with the moon now names changing over time or with who's telling the story is a reoccurring theme within these books and Hira definitely makes sense as the
6:55 sound for Jay and I are often the same in many different languages now again Jax is a boy with no luck or luckless and many take this to mean that he is a lackless in fact he's likely the founder of the lackless family one of the oldest families in tamarant with a long lineage filled with Misfortune and misery and it's a family name that's mutated and evolved over time we're gonna talk more about the lacklists pretty soon in the story Jax lives in a broken house at the end of a broken road some said the problem was that he never had any parents some said he had a drop of fairy blood in him that kept his heart from ever knowing Joy some said he was cursed or that he had a demon riding his shadow now Jax wasn't able to find happiness
7:41 and he ends up making a bet with a tinker who says that if he couldn't find anything that would make the boy happy in his packs he would give all of them to the boy but if Jax was able to find something he would have to give the Tinker his broke house now Jax doesn't find anything that makes him happy but upon trying on some spectacles and seeing the moon he decides that having her as his own would make him happy the Tinker can't give him the moon so he loses the bed and gives up all of his packs but Jax decides to give the Tinker his broken house and says that it's up to him to mend it then the boy sets off down the great Stone Road in search of the Moon until eventually it leads him to the mountains I want to pause here to mention a theory I think Jax's broken house is the under thing of the
8:27 University now I am not the first person to come up with this Theory many King killer fans have come to this same conclusion looking at the map the great Stone Road is a direct line from the University to the Far East Mountains this is the path that Jax took whoever this Tinker was it looks like the broken house or the under thing became the foundation of the University I don't know about you but to me it just makes sense that the under thing is the bro broken house and I think the Tinker wasn't actually able to mend it so he built a university upon it and that eventually became what it is today now one of the items that the Tinker had in his pack was a book of secrets we know old Cobb mentions a story of finding a book of secrets and in the wise man's fear quoth does find a book called The
9:15 Book of Secrets in The Archives this is a strange book on fairy tale creatures and it has a mysterious passage about the chandrian where it says the chandrian are quite nice to us and what's interesting is that this page unlike all the others in the book has no picture and it's framed in decorative scroll work now later on we find out the a mirror are known to hide secret messages in scrollwork perhaps these are yilish knots with a hidden message about the chandrian I think it's likely we're gonna see this book appear again in book three now it's also worth noting that in the slow regard of Silent things deep in the under thing Ari has a book titled book of secrets on the the cover of this book we see a moon and a burning candle so what might this book have that's different from the one that fauth found
10:01 could this be the original book that once belonged to a tinker gambled away to eax the Moon Thief I think it's possible okay I'm going off track back to the story Jax heads to the mountains and here he finds an old Barefoot hermit who claims to be a listener and knows about names The Hermit helps Jax open what's in the tinker's third pack and inside is a bent piece of wood a stone flute and an iron box Jax goes on to use the Crooked piece of wood to create the folding house and this house is described as having different seasons in different rooms and an unfamiliar sky and it's because of these details that many fans believe the folding house is the Fey realm I mean it even mentions the bedroom being in Twilight which would represent valurian's Twilight
10:47 Glade now the house had many doors and windows many ways both in and out and again this represents the Fey realm and how the greystones all around tamarant act as doors into the FAE in the highest tower of this house Jax plays his flute and the moon comes down to him he speaks with her and eventually ends up tricking her into giving her name ludus and he traps part of this name within his iron box causing the Moon to travel between the sky and his folding house or the Fey and the sky of tamaran now there's a few theories here I want to touch on the Barefoot hermit may be the philosopher tekum tekum is famous for the quote about the three things that wise men fear and his classic pose is depicted as a Barefoot man in the foot of a cave
11:33 teaching to his students that seems very much like the hermit however some fans think that the hermit is the Cathay as we know that eax spoke to the Cathay before he stole the moon and he spoke to the hermit who gave him all the things he needed to know in order to steal the moon also the cafe is isolated from the rest of the world just like the hermit is and when Jax began to unfold the folded house The Hermit didn't want him to do it in the cave so Jax went a little further to open up the folded house but it was much bigger than he expected so maybe when he unfolded the house and made the Fey realm it did end up stretching as far as the hermit's cave and trapped The Hermit within the Pharrell another possibility I've seen some people point out is that the Cathay
12:18 could be the Tinker himself Tinkers are kind of weird in the kingkiller chronicle they have this way of predicting what you're going to need in the future honestly I should probably make a full video just on Tinkers at some point but the Tinker is the one who gave Jax the folded house and the flute and the box everything he needed to steal the moon maybe the ancient version of Tinkers were noers who knew the things that you needed for the future who knows I'm just brainstorming now in many ways koth mirrors Jax he originally lacked the patience to learn naming from elidin and this kind of parallels Jax's inter action with the hermit Jax was too impatient to listen and was too impatient when unfolding the folded house Jax reminds me of the general
13:03 recklessness that is quote's Major character flaw of acting without taking the time to think take for example his interactions with Illidan before he leaves the university he's much too impatient now you may remember when abenthy was warning foth of the dangers of a clever but thoughtless person now Jax is basically a personification of this he started the biggest war in the history of tamarand a war that changed the landscape of the four corners and now in the frame narrative koth has also caused a war and has messed everything up koth chasing Denna mirrors Jax and the ever-changing Moon in fact I want to make a full video about Denna and the moon soon also Ari can kind of represent the moon where Jax plays the flute and
13:48 the moon came to him koth plays the loot and Ari appears now we have very little physical information on ex but the one thing we do know is that he's of the dark and changing eye who else is described as having eyes that grow darker Willem gestured in my direction look at his eyes now mola looked at me they're dark she said sounding surprised dark green like a pine bow will continued don't argue with him when his eyes go dark like that no good comes of it then he sucked vote's eyes they are deep into a green so dark they were nearly black eyes caught and held him they were the same dark eyes that chronicler had seen before eyes like an angry gods
14:34 has his mother's green eyes that have a ring of gold in them but his eyes change color they turn dark when he's angry this is because he's also of the dark and changing eye I'm convinced he is the son of the great shaper now how is cloth related to eax well we already know that he is a lacklisk foth mentions that his mother was a noble woman who was whisked away by his father but that she never talked about her family and they'd only ever visited her relatives once when he was very young lady melu and lacklis is a vintish noble and the sole heir to the lackless lands in the wise man's fear foth successfully helps the mayor court and eventually marry maluan mellowin hates the edema Rue because her sister Natalya ran off with a trooper and when
15:22 koth first meets her he's struck by how familiar her appearance is to him he can't place why but he says that resemblance was definitely not from the University or from imray this is because she reminds him of his mother koth's mother Lorien is Natalia lacklis which makes it kind of awkward that he was paid to flirt with his aunt this is one of those well-known theories in the fan base that's pretty much confirmed within the book itself however I've still talked to plenty of people who never really picked up on the small hints and clues so I think it's still worth talking about at one point foth recites a song that his father wrote that got him in trouble with his mother now the last lines of the song say it's worth my life to make my wife not tally a lot less not tally a lot less sounds very
16:08 much like a phonetic pronunciation of Natalia lacklis now shout out to Reddit user firog who pointed out that the German translation bends the English a bit to get Locker lass emphasizing the significance of this line to make it sound like it's close to lockless obviously rafis wanted this clue to carry over into different translations now at one point arlidin says to Lorien did you happen to bed down with some wandering God dozen years ago that might solve our little mystery she spotted at him playfully and a thoughtful look crossed her face spoiler alert she did and there's actually a lot of moments throughout the books where koth is referenced as a God and I think this is a hint that his mother has a secret now there's a chapter in which foth sings the child's rhyme about the lady
16:54 lackless and his mother becomes quite adamant that he shouldn't be singing it we're led to believe this is because of the innuendo but it could also be because she is Lady lackless her sister meluin is described as lady lackless so it makes sense that Natalia would be as well and the way that she reacts where she says that lady lacklis is a real person with feelings that can be hurt it makes it seem like she personally was hurt by the rhyme because this rhyme is about her now originally I wanted to decipher the entire lackless rhyme but that's just gonna make this video too long so I'm gonna make a second video later in the week where I go line by line deciphering it for now let me give an overview of what I think the poem is describing seven things needed to open the lackless door there's a flood being
17:41 held behind the door and we know from valorian that ex is held Behind The Doors of Stone which I believe is the same as the lackless door now I think the Sun that brings the blood in the poem is not simply talking about the blood of a lackless but specifically the blood of eax eax's son the rhyme mentions lady lackless or lorian having a husband associated with the lackless door I'm proposing that ex is that husband koth is the son that brings the blood now how would Lorien get behind the lackless door to meet eax through her dreams both lackless Rhymes emphasize sleep there's a secret she's been keeping she's been dreaming and not sleeping then comes that which comes
18:26 with sleeping I believe that to travel past the lackless door you must be dreaming in her sleep she's lucid and sort of astral projecting behind the lackless door where she had a child with ex in secret this is the secret that she's been keeping this would actually mirror the story of peril taught by the Talen Church Peril became pregnant through her dream and gave birth to Menda who is the Mortal form of the God talu now this parallel isn't a coincidence it's foreshadowing the seventh thing that she's keeping underneath her black dress is the secret this suggests a hidden pregnancy and she accesses the lackless door through a road that's not for traveling I believe this is the crossroads of perennial ferinial where all the roads in the world meet this is not a place any man
19:12 has ever found by searching it is not a place you travel to it is the place you pass through while on your way to somewhere else traveling through doors while you're sleeping is something we've already seen in the kingkiller chronicle fella had a dream where she went behind the foreplay door and discovered that valeritas was the name of an old dead King and his tomb was behind the door koth also had some dreams about the foreplay door but he was never able to get in and we can't forget after the slaughter of his troop and he had to survive in the woods he had a dream where he was surrounded by greystones now I believe he was actually traveling to ferinial here near the end of the dream there's a mysterious door that appears but he wakes up just before he's able to pass through it now for the record I think the ring unworn mentioned
19:58 in the lackless rhyme is the ring of weystones I also don't think it's a coincidence that both seemingly spoke with something in his dreams there was somebody that was guiding him appearing as other people that he knew that gave him information he needed to survive and this wasn't stuff he already knew maybe this was even his father ex guiding him in his sleep now cauticus mentions that on the oldest part of the lackless lands in the oldest part of their ancestral estate there is a secret door a door without a handle or hinges now my argument is that the oldest part of the lackless lens would be the Broken House the original home of Jax the under thing and what do we find at the very top of the under thing the foreplay door cauticus mentions no one knows what's on
20:43 the other side I believe the lackless door is the foreplay door and it's also The Doors of Stone leading to whatever realm ex resides in the Cathay told koth to stick by the mayor and he will lead him to the door of the Emir not many folk will take your search for the a mirror seriously you realize the mayor however is quite the extraordinary man he's already come close to them though he doesn't realize it stick by the mare and he will lead you to their door now the mayor paid for quoth's tuition to return to the university so in a sense the mayor is leading foth back to the door of the Emir I think some of the University Masters are a mere and they're in charge of guarding the foreplay door now I want to talk about
21:29 the lockless Box this is a family heirloom of the lackless family and it's a box that has no seams hinges or locks and it seems to be made of the same type of wood as the tree that imprisons the Cathay now foth guesses the box contains something several thousand years old made of glass or stone and I've always been convinced it contains a piece of rock or obsidian that cellatos used to gouge out his own eye and bind Lan Ray however I think it's a possibility this is Jax's box and it holds a piece of the name of the moon or maybe it contains Jax's flute now koth suspects that it has yellowish writing on it a language of knots he's not able to listen and open it just like how Jax wasn't able to open the knot on the third bag without
