still, there is so much more actively at play that even yennefer isn't aware of yet. her focus upon waking, upon seeing what the queen's wrath had caused, had been checking in. with jaskier first, if only because he had been the last she had seen before her meeting, and now ciri.
yennefer does not know exactly what she is looking for when she asks after jaskier, as if making sure that there wasn't anything more that jaskier hadn't mentioned, as if it could have been worse than it was. to hear that he's being guarded is both a relief and also a worry, but so is the way of things in war. ]

[ ciri can probably feel how unhappy yennefer is with the situation, but that will probably say quite a bit in and of itself. that she is still here, even though she doesn't want to be. ]
