[ from here ]

[ instead of some base (and, perhaps, more appropriate) emotional reaction to the concept, yennefer's expression furrows with genuine thought. what would that look like? half of all life in the universe? she thinks of the continent. the nearest she can imagine is some natural catastrophe, like the conjunction of spheres, something that would crush a nation or flood it. wipe it from every map.

is nilfgaard not doing that? but then she thinks of that word, half, and tries to imagine the real loss. not the elimination of some parts of a whole, but the fragmentation. bisecting it. and she thinks that's a better understanding of the wound.

her expression resolves into something serious. not curious, not intellectual. grim.

How does one man cause that much death?
