No, but like, imagine you're jaskier. A bard painfully in love with your weirdly mutated wolf witcher. A magical thing tells you the story of the first ever dog Witcher, and you're like "ok, cool" and then she tells you how this fucking dog is in love with a BARD who gets called basically the same things you get called.
And they are in mutual love and it's like the best most romantic love to be ever existed.
I think Istredd would throttle Jaskier if they ever met after blood origin. He's dedicated his entire life to studying the monoliths, and then here comes this bard who tells him exactly what they are, where they're from and how they work, and as much as he wants to discredit it, it fits in with his own research and fills in some of the massive gaps he had.
Why help? What's in it for you?
I was at the great oak Bleobheris when it was raided. The Seat of Friendship, the druids called it. Where every free thinker was welcome, no matter their race, their creed. They come for the elves, Yennefer. They'll come for the dwarves. And sooner or later, they will come for everyone. Anyone that they deem the “other,” so eventually no artist is safe...
Netflix realized the witcher franchise is going to shit and their gut reaction was ‘more bard’ and ‘make things gayer’ and guess what both decisions were correct
