“Unbidden, tears fell from the man’s eyes, and a low keening whine escaped his throat. The big man, whose name was Geralt, despised himself for the fear he felt, and he knew that he would tell the terrible child anything he wanted to know.

He saw vengeance made flesh, come to reap the bitter harvest the Chickenhawk gang had sown.”
