This isn't about fear. Gods forbid I be the sort to tell others what they should really fear.

[Though he certainly believes warning anyone about Yennefer is far. He doesn't care if people fear her -- Jaskier himself certainly does -- but he also knows her, is quite knowledgeable of what she is capable of, and he does not hesitate to think she will kill someone for attacking her.

Which is what Estinien has done, by his own admission. The question is -- why didn't she?]


I understand your hatred of Thorne, Estinien. I truly do. I feel it burn in my own breast for what they've done to Geralt, to my own friends. But do you believe you'll solve anything, hurting the people who came here of no accord of their own? She was a prisoner, like you. She was beaten, attempted to be broken. She went through the very same as you. Believe me, she has no love lost for that kingdom. [And the words fall with distaste; in this entire plane or any other, he should be the last one trying to defend Yennefer. As much as he loathes her general presence, he does not wish her dead.] But this isn't a race of dogs, where we bet on our favorite breed. We are all simply trying to fucking survive in this world that none of us belong to.
