    Summary

    When Rience is done, he throws what is left of Jaskier into the harbor, not even having the courtesy to finish him off first. One final cruel insult: drowning the man you burned.

    It seems unfair, Jaskier thinks, to spend thirty-nine years being a person, breathing and alive, only to end as tattered cloth and scorched meat, dumped like so much garbage.

    No one will ever know what happened to him.

    Summary

    When Geralt gets close he sees that Jaskier’s eyes are shut. He’s breathing freely, just a little congested from the plaster that’s settled on his skin, making him look chill and dead. “Jaskier,” Geralt says, relieved, “wake up.” He reaches to touch the bard’s cheek.

    But his fingers fail to make contact. They slide away when they get near, as if his body is coated in oil, or grease; something slick that allows no purchase. He tries again, pressing harder, and the resistance hardens in turn, like glass beneath his fingers, smooth and cold.

    “Jaskier,” he says again, and winces at the desperation in his voice. He touched the emerald, and it did something to him. Mad Tymon was right: it contained power. A curse.

    Geralt takes a contract to investigate a haunted house, and ends up haunting it.

    Summary

    “Jaskier…” Geralt whispered, bringing a hand up to cup the bard’s tear-streaked face.

    Jaskier looked away, turning from Geralt’s outstretched hand. “Don’t, fuck—” Jaskier’s voice was suddenly coarse. The scent Geralt had caught when he entered the room spiked aggressively in the air. The bard brought his hands up to his own face, pressing the heels into his eyes in a manner the Witcher would’ve thought painful. After a moment of rigid stillness, Jaskier inhaled raggedly and, on the exhale, made a sound that made Geralt feel as though his own essence were draining away. It was low and quiet compared to the gasping breath the bard had taken, but transformed into a baying wail, an inhuman keening. Geralt had heard similar sounds a few times in his life, always when a person fell into unfathomable despair, usually at the death of a loved one. This was the first time he’d heard someone he cared for make that sound.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Geralt takes Jaskier home to Kaer Morhen, where things are far from simple. When Jaskier is injured on the trail up the mountain and Geralt is called away, the bard finds that his own mind is a formidable foe.
