Ep. 313 - Ch. 21 Part 1 Golden Fool - Convalescence

Fitz finally wakes up from his Skill healing and speaks with Chade about the events that transpired. Severely weakened, he tries his best to dissuade Chade of pursuing Skill studies alone or dragging Thick unwittingly into the fray. Failing that, Fitz tries to recover some more before looking into a mirror and shaving. Unbroken, smooth, healed skin meets his gaze, and he heads to Chade's room to explain an unspoken misunderstanding they have. 
We're reading Golden Fool by Robin Hobb, book 2 of the Tawny Man Trilogy in The Realm of the Elderlings.
