[ She doesn't know that Geralt had spoken with Viktor about it, specifically, but she does remember well how Geralt felt about their risky plan with the trackers. She has some sense that Geralt finds Viktor someone to be wary of. In a way, she doesn't disagree; Viktor's capabilities make him just as dangerous if he put his mind to it as they make him beneficial to the community, in the same way anyone with significant skill and willpower could be. But she knows Viktor well enough, she thinks, to trust that his goals are never going to involve harming others, especially not people he cares about. She knows he fears the Free Cities trying to weaponize his work, and that is a fear she identifies with on a personal basis. ]
Does Geralt believe any of it? The answer is the same. It doesn't matter, so long as he thinks I'm in danger.
You asked me once what I would do if the people I love most are taken from me. If Geralt disappeared, like so many others have. [ Like Jayce. ]
I answered: anything.
That's what Geralt would do for me, to keep me safe.
