Bab 652: Moving Forward in the DPZ "Divine Particle Zone" (1)

"Once this topic was brought up, it was natural that Garrison would join Geralt, but after the death of Lithlen, your father was distraught and took it upon himself to act like a guard of sorts for the two, joining them on their journey out of Valor City."

Jessup's voice echoed throughout the training room, causing Cinyah to clasp her hands and place them against her chest in worry.

After Lithlen's death, something changed in Rikard, and he shut her out entirely as if he had made a difficult decision without asking for her input. 

Noticing the change in Cinyah's body language, Jessup decided not to speak about the reason Rikard had given him before leaving, as the man first had to convince him why he should be allowed to leave.
