When Calanthe left, Nashi, Ezio, and Geralt sat at the table.
Nashi: "I think we are the killers here. You're the one telling the truth, Witcher. Why are you dressed like a silk merchant?"
Geralt glared at the bard.
Geralt: "I never thought of dining at the same table with you."
Ezio: "We are honored. I didn't expect the White Wolf to know about us."
Geralt: "People who don't know about you either live in the cave or die."
Nashi: "I didn't know we were so famous. We are just a few gathered people."
Mousesack: "The one who killed several generals. It's funny to hear about the eternal fire church from a semi-disabled person."
Ezio: "Oh, they were just starting on an inhumane path."
Pavetta: "How would that be?"
Nashi: "This is not something you have to learn yet, my lady. I'm sure you'll find out when the time comes."
Later, while they chat the feast continues. Calanthe entered and sat on her throne in a beautiful dress. This would be the chair in the middle of the main table right now. Then a big turkey came to the table.
Calanthe: "I hate wearing this damn thing. I would rather wear armor tonight."
Geralt: "So am I."
Calanthe: "Really? What brings a Witcher to my daughter's engagement? And dressed like that."
Calanthe laughed a little. She was a really beautiful woman without blood on her.
Geralt: "I'm protecting the bard from the horned courtiers."
Calanthe: "They're all idiots. Still, I'm glad you're here. I do not doubt that there will be bloodshed tonight."
Geralt: "Let the Queen not waste her breath. I'm not guarding."
Calanthe: "The bard has hired you as a bodyguard."
Geralt smiled slightly.
Geralt: "I'm just helping that idiot scatter money, that's all."
Calanthe: "So he's stupid, right? I'm saying, if things go wrong tonight, can I count on you to take the opportunity to ditch some annoying types? I would do it myself, but I have to follow the rules of courtesy."
Geralt: "Look. I cannot help you."
Calanthe: "You are dangerously outspoken. As queen, I can command that."
Geralt: "If I were one of your subjects."
Calanthe: "I can get you straight with very slow torture."
Geralt: "Your Majesty can do whatever he wants. My opinion does not change."
Calanthe: "Oh, come on. Everyone had a price, like our friends next to me."
Hassan Sabbah and Ezio, who were eating at that time, looked at the Queen.
Just as he was about to say something, the messenger began to speak.
Messenger: "Lord Peregrine of Nilfgaard."
They interrupted the man's speech a few times before he started wearing overalls, and everyone laughed.
Caalanthe: "Draig Bon-Dhu. If I hear another sound, I'll sew your intestines into the pipe and send it to your mother."
Peregrine: "Queen Calanthe, by marrying your daughter, we will unite the gems of the north and the south and forge an unshakable alliance that cannot be challenged. Also, I have five brothers and no sisters. My strong seed to Pavetta will produce very strong male heirs."
To the side, Ezio and Nashi smiled slightly.
Calanthe: "Cintra is indeed the gem of the north, but Nilfgaard is the shithole of the south, and even that would be a compliment."
Everyone burst into laughter. Except for 3 people.
Calanthe: "Tell me, is it true that you drink piss and eat your children?"
Likewise, everyone laughed again.
Calanthe: "The kings of Nilfgaard do not live long. If it goes on like this, they will live even shorter because of the friends sitting next to us. Who will be the usurper's throne? Is it yours? How long will you last? One year? a month? One day?"
The man turned bruised and walked away.
Ezio: "Not a good choice."
Messenger: "Lord Steertgart of Kaedwen."
Later came those whom the Queen rejected in different ways.
Then Dandelion came out and began to sing.
Calanthe: "How many more hours do I have to put up with this snobbery? All because that's what men's traditions are like. If I were a man, I'd fuck all of this up and tell him who Pavetta should marry. Or better yet, the poor girl would have made her destiny."
Geralt: "Something tells me that this isn't your first time going against the traditions of men. I think… you like it."
Calanthe: "You sound like a man surrounded by idiots. Tell me, Witcher. Why are there so few of you left?"
The Witcher was silent for a few seconds.
Geralt: "After Kaer Morhen has been plundered, it is no longer possible to create a Witcher. Tell me, Your Majesty… why risk your life in a war when you can sit on the throne?"
Calanthe: "Because killing monsters has an appealing simplicity, right? Looks like we made a good couple, Geralt of Rivia."
From the side, Nashi chuckled. Meanwhile, both the Queen and the Witcher turned to look at him.
Nashi: "Oh, sorry again. Today is a really fun day. It's just funny that you fooled yourself along with people."
Geralt: "What do you mean, Lord Sabbah?"
Nashi: "Oh, I am not a Lord, Mr. Geralt. I just wonder. Seriously, it's not possible to create a Witcher? My sources tell me in other ways. It amused me that you said this when in the same way His Majesty had to keep real monsters on our side. I hope you two don't mind me. Oh for the previous blood deal. I think you're right, if it goes on like this, there will seriously be blood. I wonder if you are ready to pay the price, my Queen?"
When Nashi had finished his sentence, the door was forced open and a knight entered, knocking down the knights on either side of him. Everyone turned and looked at that person.
Knight: "Excuse my delay, sir. He's also in the affair with the guards. Please! I came with good intentions. I will take up very little of your time. I am Lord Urcheon of Erlenwwanld. I've come to aspire to your daughter."
There was silence before the war.
Calanthe: "An unknown knight from a Tara village dares to appear before me without even opening his visor?"
From the side, Ezio whispered.
Ezio: "You better be ready, Witcher."
Knight: "I'm sorry, Your Majesty. According to my knightly oath, I cannot open my visor until the bell has rung 12 times."
At that time, Calanthe's future wife. "Get out of there." He said and took off his mask.
Just for everyone to see someone with a hedgehog head.
Calanthe: "The Witcher…Kill it."
Geralt: "No."
Calanthe: "I'll give you whatever you want."
Geralt: "He's not a monster."
Calanthe: "I command you. Brotherhood to you too."
Geralt: "This knight is cursed."
Ezio: "Unfortunately, we only take orders from one person, my queen."
Calanthe: "You're just as useless as the others. KILL that monster!"
One of the guards swung his sword from the left. The hedgehog-headed man grabbed her hand and slapped her in the face with the other. Then he pulled at your cat and hit his elbow in his face. Hedgehog drew his sword.
Hedgehog: "Lioness of Cintra! I want what is rightfully mine! Pavetta. According to the Right to be Surprised."
There was dead silence again.
Just for the knights to attack the man again. By avoiding the man, he began inflicting non-lethal damage. Nashi took grapes from the plate and began to eat. Whispering.
Nashi: "It's not that bad. He still needs help, Witcher."
Meanwhile, the man lost his sword and fell to the ground after being punched. Just as he was about to die, Geralt was already beside him without anyone noticing, and he cut the blown ax by the handle.
Ezio: "Seriously, witchers are one thing."
The witcher then struck the knight on the head with the flat part of his sword.
Calanthe: "Kill them both. I'll give you what you two want, just kill them."
Nashi: "Forgive me my queen, but you can't expect me to seriously believe someone who doesn't follow the Law of Surprise."
Then about 20 soldiers and the two of them started fighting. Meanwhile, more soldiers were coming through the door.
Nashi: "Ezio maybe you should help."
Ezio sighed and took out his sword and went inside to fight.
Calanthe: "What does that mean, Sabbah!"
Nashi: "My queen, we are just stopping the war. I don't know if you believe it, but we don't like war at all."
The people sitting in that row also stood up to get into a fight, only to have a chair broken on their heads.
Eist (who will become king of Calanthe): "The Law of Surprise has been summoned. If you're going to kill them. You have to kill me too."
Then the fight escalated. Then the Queen rose from her chair and took her sword from one of the fallen knights. Then the queen pointed her sword at the Witcher.
Calanthe: "Stop. STOP!"
Everyone stopped and there was silence.
