And they say the wisdom of ages is to be found in fairy tales. It’s not worth a shit, wisdom like that,
Their outright insane tendency to cruelty, aggression, sudden bursts of anger and an unbridled temperament were noted.” “You can say that about any woman,”

“Evil is evil, Stregobor,” said the witcher seriously as he got up. “Lesser, greater, middling, it’s all the same. Proportions are negotiated, boundaries blurred. I’m not a pious hermit.
