Dialog[edit]

Yennefer: Geralt! That tunic - you look positively smashing.

Geralt: Ugh, dying to take it off.

Yennefer: I'd consider that a proposition under different circumstances... one I might even take you up on. But we've matters to attend to. Now do you understand why I'm at Emhyr's court?

Geralt: Mhm. And seems we're in the same boat, now. Ciri - she's really back? No chance he's mistaken?

Yennefer: Look. That's more or less what she looks like now, or so our agents claim. Our little witcher's grown into a young lady.

Geralt: Hm, so they're "our" agents now? My, my... you've clearly settled in quick.

Yennefer: Geralt, don't twist my words. I know who Emhyr is. He started this war and its bloodshed. He had my friends killed. But I haven't any other choice, so please... lets not belabor the pros and cons and instead focus on finding Ciri. All right?

Geralt: How about that, she's grown up.

Yennefer: It's been years since you trained together in Kaer Morhen. A great deal has changed.

Geralt: Emhyr siad the Wild Hunt's after her. I'd find that hard to believe - before what happened yesterday. How did they track us down?

Yennefer: Because of me. You see... I've spent months searching for Ciri. Using locating spells, haruspicy, geomancy, anything, really. I knew the Wild Hunt might sense it, perhaps even find me, but.. I though I'd tricked them.

Geralt: Well, guess you were wrong

Yennefer: Hm. I've sense them on my trail, hunting me, for some time. If not for you and Emhyr's soldiers, They'd have gotten what they were after. I can't risk another encounter like that. It's time to put away the magic, turn to more traditional methods... to the best tracker I know. You must find her, Geralt. Before the Wild Hunt does.

Geralt: So where's Ciri been seen, exactly?

Yennefer: In two places - Velen and Novigrad. The trail in Velen is most promising. You should make that your first stop. Ask for a merchant named Hendrik an the Inn at the Crossroads. One of the emperor's agents, he should get in touch with you.

Geralt: That's it? No passwords, secret handshakes?

Yennefer: None. Sorry to spoil your fun, your boyhood fantasies about the crafts of the trade. All we have in Novigrad are unconfirmed reports, rumors. But there you will hae the help of our mutual acquaintance. Triss Merigold. Apparently she's got a cozy flat on the main square.

Strategy Guide/Tips[edit]

  • You won't be able to talk to Ambassador at the Library until after you have spoken with Yennefer.
