[He takes a peek at her from over his shoulder. A lot going on back home could mean anything, but he certainly understands the sentiment. If Rinwell is already so cautious about her magic, what could that mean for her sphere? Perhaps it's as tumultuous a place as the Continent is.]
Wait, what? Well, if it's to be our dinner, be confident in knowing you're the one hunting it. I'll -- I'll protect Rosebud, of course.
[Geralt warned him about it for a reason, thank you.]
I'm sorry you were summoned here, then, that your power wasn't embraced. It would have been in Thorne, but over there, there's... you still have to watch for knives in your back. As in any court.
[ Given how little she's said of home, it's entirely possible there's as many similarities as there are differences. Some day, there will be a proper sit down, a proper discussion. And perhaps a few things revealed that'll get uncomfortable questions on both sides.

Well, that'll depend on just how big it is. If I'm fighting alone, I mean. I.. [there's a delicate pause, before Rinwell pushes on.] I got used to fighting alongside my friends, back home. We'd coordinate together - Alphen and Law taking the front line, and Shionne and I in the back. It was a little sloppy at first, but, eventually we really had a knack for taking down zeugles together.
I've heard bits and pieces about Thorne. [it wasn't said to her directly, but it wasn't hard to piece together where Geralt went] There used to be kings and queens and the like on Dahna, once upon a time. [emphasis on 'used to'] But mages, my people, were persecuted for a long time and stayed hidden. Not revered like the Thorneans, or the Renans.
