Night.
Joshua was in the carriage returning to Hearthstone Tavern. Ciri had failed to suppress her desire to sleep and was sleeping on Joshua's shoulder.
Joshua could only try his best to relax his shoulder so that this female mage that had once warned him to not touch her will be able to sleep more comfortably. While doing so, he gently touched Ciri's long silver-gray hair.
An hour earlier. The dark elf informed Joshua some information about the Heresy Tribunal.
With the information she revealed to him and his own guesses, Joshua was practically certain that this Heresy Tribunal believed in a nefarious and evil god.
Even though Joshua managed to avoid having 'open struggles' with the Holy Church by opening the Hearthstone Tavern, there will most definitely be a lot of 'hidden battles' from now on.
