» Horizon

Geralt is always reachable by the network. Unless it's an emergency, expect not to hear back for a few hours, if not a few days.

To talk to him in person, you'll need to be in Cadens or go to his domain, a snowy mountain fortress. Yard is open; doors are locked. If he isn't around, leave a delivery with the white wolf.

[ He can take as long as he wants, because what the fuck is right. Julie's been grappling with it for weeks now, nearly as long as Geralt's been out of the city, and she's not any closer to what it means. She's not even sure if this theory about Flagg is anywhere near right, and if not for the bruises, she wouldn't have said anything at all. The bruises are what she can't reconcile. ]

Interfering? Did he say how?

[ Because there's something there too, she simply hasn't mentioned it. She thought it was maybe just the exhaustion, or her mind playing tricks on her. She also doesn't tell him about the change in her magic, figuring that it can wait. It's not bad, it's just different. Like she'd told Ciri.

Julie knows, knows that Ciri is every bit as qualified to protect the two of them, herself and Nadine, as Geralt is. More than Sam. But it's not the same, and Ciri has just gone through some shit herself. She mentioned issues with her magic, and Julie knows enough to be wary of what Ciri can do without meaning to. It says a lot, coming from someone who still accidentally sets things on fire on a fairly regular basis. ]

No. I'll be okay for three days.

He didn't have to. I saw it. Blood and fire. I presumed...

[ He needn't explain. Julie knows what happened to his own place not long ago, and even before that, how the shadow of Ciri had spawned. And that room he still cannot rid himself of, buried deep beneath the stairs. His experience with the Horizon has been less than stable from the start. To say the least. He's the last person to consider something might be deeply wrong where bad dreams and one's Horizon being fucked is concerned.

Were Julie alone, Geralt might've insisted. She has Nadine, though. Protection is important, but he imagines a familiar, comforting face means equally as much, if not more. Out of all of them, Nadine knows Julie best. Knows Flagg, too, in ways none of them do. Ciri will be close by, if she's needed. ]

If anything else happens, tell me.
I'll come see you as soon as I can.

But it wasn't
Never mind, we can talk when you're back.

[ There's no point in it right now. He's still days out, and what she'd seen in the Horizon doesn't seem to have actually affected anything, at least not in an urgent way. She got what she wanted, she knows when they'll be back. ]

Just be safe.
