The first song, 21st Century Schizoid Man, is also great. Honestly though, In the Court of the Crimson King is a great album in general and I would highly recommend giving it a listen. I haven't seen or heard anything about Patrick Rothfuss even mentioning King Crimson or any 70s prog rock. So, I know this is extremely far fetched (but fun). Particularly, who is the yellow jester? Have we already met him or her? The yellow jester does not play But gently pulls the strings And smiles as the puppets dance In the court of the crimson king." I run to grasp divining signs To satisfy the hoax. On soft grey mornings widows cry, The wise men share a joke. The pattern juggler lifts his hand The orchestra begin As slowly turns the grinding wheel In the court of the crimson king. I chase the wind of a prism ship To taste the sweet and sour.

The black queen chants the funeral march, The cracked brass bells will ring To summon back the fire witch To the court of the crimson king. I wait outside the pilgrim's door With insufficient schemes. The keeper of the city keys Puts shutters on the dreams.

"Talking to the tees of the cobweb strange" "Sailing on the wind in a milk white gown" "playing hide and seek with the ghosts of dawn" From beating Mickey on the head to bashing him into the ground Pete has done anything that he could do to. Pete was captain of the steamboat and would never give Mickey a break. In the first cartoon with sound Steamboat Willie, Pete and Mickey made their first and third appearance. The fourth song, Moonchild, could be Auri's theme song. The story of Peg Leg Pete since his first appearance in the 1925 animated short film Alice Solves the Puzzles. If we make it we can all sit back and laugh. "When every man is torn apart with nightmares and with dreams, will no one lay the laurel wreath as silence drowns the screams" "Confusion will be my epitaph, as I crawl a cracked and broken path. The third song, Epitaph, sounds like it could be Kote's theme song. The second song on the album "In the Court of the Crimson King" is I Talk to the Wind, which automatically made me think of The Name of the Wind.
