I figured I’d do the second half of the huge chapter of Little Fishie tonight as a special treat. It’s all action and no fluff, but does contain the solution to the riddle of Roach, kind of off-hand and unsatisfyingly– and Jaskier’s not there to hear it, so clearly there’s going to be some shenanigans about it later.
Mostly we get an outside perspective on Geralt blowing a lot of things up.
The captain was still on his horse, staring down at him in poorly-disguised horror. “There’s not time for us to go anywhere else tonight,” he said, quietly. “We have to either stay here, and hope whatever it was doesn’t come back, or take our chances out in the woods.”
“Those are bad chances,” Geralt said. He looked up at the captain. “Fortunately, you have me. This will save me the trouble of hunting, it’s just as well.” Which was a lie, but, if the man had made an effort to be civil to him, he could try to be civil back. At least, until they all got killed.
