Apparently Rothfuss wrote both the trial and the pirate attack, then cut them—everything left matters—sometimes to ridiculous levels of detail. The scenes where the moon's visible and where it's not? That's calculated. Denna's hairstyles carefully correlate to the adjectives used to describe her, since she's using Yllish knots from pretty early on. Tema is mildly decipherable from the inscriptions we see, as are a few words of Temic and Siaru.

The Crazy-detailed reread over at tor.com (http://www.tor.com/features/series/patrick-rothfuss-reread) has more. They're verging into conspiracy theory. Assuming Rothfuss has exactly one human brain and he's also using it to feed himself and shower, only about half of what they propose can be true.
