it feels like she's being sold off against her will all over again. she left aretuza determined to never be that girl again -- and yet she feels as trapped as she did those first few nights in aretuza, when the road to freedom looked like suicide.
except that wouldn't stick here, so it's not even a viable option. she doesn't know what a viable option even looks like. but there has to be a counter spell. there has to be a way to break it. she'll talk to geralt after this. he knows about rituals and curses and how to break them. and she doesn't just like want to see him or anything.
she checks her device, opening up the message. having the information herself is helpful but also dangerous, as it'll help her fixate and obbsess over it.)
They might, but somehow I doubt they'll give away that information easily. (as far as the casino goes, anyway.)
If we could find the creatures he used parts from we might be able to use the same things to try to break the ritual but that's a big if and whether we'll be able to find them at all.....Mammon collects exotic creatures, they may only be on his island.
(and she was to be one of his newest pets, it sounds like. she gets up. she can't stay here. suddenly pouring over books doesn't feel like enough and her skin is crawling with chaos and panic and she just -- she tries to remember to breathe. and instead of talking about how she's feeling about all this her instinct is to run.)
