The Loeclos Box is named after the original spelling and pronunciation of the surname Lockless, which eventually evolved into the name Lackless, the family who possesses the box. Very little is known about it, and Kvothe discovers very little about it even after handling it in The Chronicle. The characters agree that it is most likely three thousand years old or more, dating back to the start of Lockless family. While the box is a well kept secret, some hint of it has made it into general knowledge over the years, as seen in several references.

  • The Loeclos Box is named after the original spelling and pronunciation of the surname Lockless, which eventually evolved into the name Lackless, the family who possesses the box. Very little is known about it, and Kvothe discovers very little about it even after handling it in The Chronicle. The characters agree that it is most likely three thousand years old or more, dating back to the start of Lockless family. Kvothe describes it as the size of a thick book, unnaturally heavy for its size. The box is smooth but carved with a subtle pattern that he speculates might be a Yllish story knot both on the sides and the top, that Meluan herself didn't notice. The wood is dark with a deep red grain and smells familiar to Kvothe, he describes it as a spicy smell, almost like lemon. It has no visible hinges, seams, or locks, but has something inside. Kvothe describes it as feeling like a box. Whatever is inside it is most likely glass or stone, judging by the weight. The Maer and Meluan are not in agreement as to the actual volume of the box. While the box is a well kept secret, some hint of it has made it into general knowledge over the years, as seen in several references. "In a box, no lid or locksLackless keeps her husband's rocks." ―Folk song
