There was more than happened, after. Something I couldn't protect her from.
[ When Voleth Meir, likely frustrated by Yennefer's decision to renege on their deal, had possessed Ciri instead, it had taken nearly everything in their combined power — Yennefer and her alchemy, Geralt and his small band of witcher brethren — to stop her. ]
I — we saved her, eventually. I'm not certain how much she remembers from that time, or if she even recalls it at all. [ They haven't spoken of it, that betrayal, and Yennefer is reluctant to do so if it means it'll change things between them now. It might be an inevitability, though, just as this is — finally admitting to her regret, with Wei Wuxian. ]
Once I saw her, truly saw her... I knew I couldn't carry out what I had planned to do. But it didn't change the fact that I almost did it.
