Dialog

Aldert: What a waste of time. The earth shall revolve around the sun before you comprehend these rules.

Geralt: Got a minute?

Aldert: Why not. Aldert Geert, assistant professor in contemporary history at Oxenfurt Academy

Geralt: Geralt of Rivia. Witcher with tenure. I'm looking for a woman - long hair, dressed in black and white. Seen anyone like that?

Aldert: Of course not. Unlike the populace, I know the Horsewoman of War is pure poppycock.

Geralt: Horsewoman of War - What's that about?

Aldert: Folk say an omen, a beautiful phantom rides the fields at night. Looks as you described her. Armies follow her, and all who cross her path meet with misfortune.

Geralt: I can vouch for the last bit. Know where they saw her?

Aldert: No. Facts interest me, not fairytales.

Geralt: Not a place I'd ever expect to find a scholar. Take it you fleeing the war?

Aldert: Quite the opposite. Chasing it. I'm headed for the front.

Geralt: Tired of life?

Aldert: I seek knowledge, which I value more than life itself. I've a thirst no dusty old tomes can quench. I wish to see the Nilfgaardian invasion with my own eyes, understand it, and record it all in my chronicle, my magnum opus.

Geralt: Interesting. We need somebody to describe war - what it's really like. Not colorful banners and generals making moving speeches, but rape, violence, and thoughtless cruelty.

Aldert: Ah, I see you lack the polish of the academy. Rape and cruelty are details of no import to the war's course. Trinkets on the garment of conflict, one might say.

Geralt: Hm. Tell that to the people whose houses burned down. Gotta go. So long.

Aldert: A moment, witcher. You strike me as a man of the world. Are you familiar with Gwent?

Geralt: No, and I don't have time to learn.

Aldert: But the rules are quite simple. Come, let's play.

Aldert: If you ever find yourself in Oxenfurt and wish to play a true master, ask for Stjepan. A simple innkeep by trade, but a true maestro when it comes to Gwent
