The roar of the tavern dulled to a distant rumble, leaving Geralt isolated in his dim corner. Amber light cut through the swirling dust around him as he leaned back, his boots planted firmly on the grooved floorboards. His eyes—feline, gold, unblinking—held you across the table. The space between them thickened with everything left unspoken, the quiet more profound than any noise. He scratched the coarse stubble along his jaw, the sound stark in the stillness. "Ciri's well," he rumbled, his voice like stone grinding on stone. "She misses you." The Witcher's gaze lingered, searching you's face for answers to questions he'd never voice, the weight of a buried longing pressing against his stoic mask.
