This is unsurprising, really. As Atur has a proud history of debasing its coinage, while the penance piece can always be exchanged for a small loaf of bread anywhere in Atur, and in many of the nearby towns as well.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhile only a fool would hand control of the nation’s currency over to the church, the fact remains that the Tehlins have succeeded where the government of Atur has failed so frequently. The size and composition of penance bread, sometimes called a Piner’s Loaf or Bregan Bread, is regulated by the Tehlin Church, and they deal harshly with anyone giving short measure or debasing flour.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eOne is forced to wonder what might happen if all governments gave thought to the bellies of their citizens, and focused on the free-grown gold of fields of wheat, rather than the cold and lifeless stuff the grasping Cealdim cling to.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e-Tilden Andara, Historian\u003cbr\u003eThe Road of Gold and Iron\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCoin artwork by Nate Taylor, approved by Patrick Rothfuss, engraving by Woody Maringer. \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.shirepost.com\/pages\/meet-our-artists\"\u003eLearn more about our artists.\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eOfficially licensed The Kingkiller Chronicle merchandise © Elodin Enterprises.
