Understanding that history might be the key to understanding more about the blue light that's suppressing our magic. Clearly it's been involved in events spanning centuries here if we're able to affect ruins. Yet none of us have been here longer than ten months. There's something there.

Of course it'd have to be ruins, though. I knew someone once who would have delighted to dig through them. Dust and rubble. He'd laugh to see me now.


[ it's a touch sentimental, isn't it? thinking of istredd now. yennefer pushes away thoughts that this might have been what they did together, if she hadn't insisted upon going to court in aedirn. having a compellign reason to spelunk around ruins doesn't mean she'll enjoy it, doesn't mean she'd like to make a life of it. ]

He's gone now.

( killing him hadn't brought the peace he'd hoped it would, but he was gone and that was something. )

Traps to keep them hidden?

That's very deterministic of you. Worthiness implies a higher power to ordain it, doesn't it?
I'm more interested in who built the gates and set the traps.

Could be cultural to those who built it.

As you say.

How did you teach yourself?

How would you define it?

The three aren't always mutually exclusive.
Though in this case, it would be more the latter than the former.

Nothing that would be useful, here.

Physical augmentation.
Improve my strength, speed, endurance. That sort of thing.
