» 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.

[ Ciri catches the momentary confusion in his expression; she's grown familiar with Geralt's many little frowns. Her breath escapes sharply, almost a laugh, maybe a sigh. ]

I accidentally portalled us into Andromeda Bay. Viktor can't swim.

[ She probably doesn't need to explain more. Even on her own, it'd have been hard to swim to shore carrying a sword. Trying to keep them both from drowning, it'd been impossible. ]

I know. I have the coin. I just thought... to tell you.

[gynvael]

[ She doesn't. Viktor's a bit more important than a sword. What happened sounds like chaos at best, but at least everything seems to be sorting itself out.

He doesn't want to think about the next time something goes wrong.

He studies her for a moment, sensing what she's saying without actually saying it. Remembers how she lit up, when he'd taken her to retrieve her blade. Not her first, but the first he'd given her. The first he could recall giving her, at the time. ]

You'd have to wait until I'm home. But I could come with you. Commission another like before.

[wiedzminka]

[ Her shoulders relax subtly. Ciri nods. ]

All right. In the meantime, I've my dagger. [ Which she is very, very grateful that Viktor didn't lose in the water. It's something of a miracle, really; he strapped it really well to his belt. ]

I'll let you know when I'm in the city, and we'll speak again then.

[ Unless something else comes up. Which, hopefully, it doesn't. ]

You and Sam are all right?

[gynvael]

[ Geralt nods, too. The rest can wait until they can speak in person. He knows she can't spend too much time in the Horizon, either, if she has Viktor to look out for and they're riding in a stranger's wagon. ]

The most exciting thing that's invaded our camp were a few spiders.

[ Geralt's been careful to take them around any nesting grounds and dangerous territories. He's brought Sam with him so Sam can help take a look at what's inside that cave and tell him what it might mean—not to do anything else.

He rises to his feet. ] Be careful. I'll be with you soon.

[wiedzminka]

[ She is kind enough to smile at Geralt's potential attempt at a joke. Ciri stands, looking visibly less worried than she had when she'd come in. Sure, nothing's actually really changed-- but seeing Geralt and having his reassurance has helped immensely anyway, in ways she probably doesn't even realize. ]

You too.

[ Ciri gives him one more hug before they part. They both still have long trips ahead. ]
