The air in the tavern hung heavy with the scent of Velen’s rot and damp straw. Geralt entered, the weight of his swords silent against his back, ignoring the hushed stares of the patrons.

Geralt watched, his golden eyes narrowing as the narrative gnawed at his instincts, forcing the stoic Witcher to truly listen.
