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.

Most likely, if the Queen doesn't already have me appointed to do so.
Of the other Summoned here with the clout needed for such political dealings, I'd rather at least be in attendance.
Stephen won't bother.
Thancred might, but he usually prefers to deal with everything around the table instead of at the table itself.
Kyle...actually, he may. Have you spoken to him before?

I'd prefer to know you're there.

[ They agreed long ago for Yennefer to remain in Thorne; Geralt's confidence in that plan wavered for some time after...Ciri, after the loss of Yennefer's magic—but both the changing of the Summoned who occupy the castle and their more recent understanding of each other has restored his trust. She will keep anything that endangers Ciri from falling into Thorne's hands. That much he knows.

Kyle, however, is. An interesting subject. ]

We're acquainted.
He distrusts the crown.
Where his aims lie in response to that distrust,
I can't say.

That's my plan, currently.
I don't see anyone trying to argue my presence.
It's just a matter of who else will be present.

[ because she is confident in at least that, and her confidence is something that's returned with her chaos. that, and perhaps also geralt's trust in her.

she just hopes it doesn't involve any extra politics to ensure her seat there. she doesn't foresee anyone in particular stepping up, other than kyle, which is where the conversation has led. ]

He doesn't seem the reckless type; he's too careful of his words and the directions of his questions for that.
But he's captured some attention, lately, whether or not he meant to.
I haven't seen him at a political discussion, though.
And he certainly isn't one to sit quietly if he doesn't agree with the terms.

He's not.
I doubt you'll find trouble
so long as the situation remains stable.

But men like him hold little restraint once they decide caution has served its purpose.

[ Ask him how he knows. (This is the reason half the shit that happens to him happens.) ]

Oh yes, because Thorne is known for its stability.
With any luck perhaps these Netherfolk will raze it all to the ground.

Do you think he'd be a liability at the table?
He's not yet given me reason to believe him suicidal.
Yet.

[ she doesn't need to ask how he knows. he's pretty aware of it, or at least she'd like to think herself so. ]
