"What lies ahead, it doesn't define our path. The only thing that matters is what we choose to do."
Even if he were to see well into the years, even if Ciri were to tell him, what then? Her memories hold his fate in their sphere. Not this one.
Perhaps that's why he'd searched for answers in the first place, long before the Mark overtook Dean. He'd thought—though there was no solution that would not release some calamity upon the earth back home, there could be one here.
He can't yet say if that holds true. A large part of him is wagering on the Singularity's magic infusing the Mark. The same way it infuses everything. Not the entity Lucifer spoke of. How else could Dean summon a blade that does not truly exist in this world? One that vanishes at will?
Something is already different about where they find themselves. It has been from the start. Dean's Mark came with his memories, and then the First Blade came shortly afterwards. It is not unlike Yennefer's lost Chaos. No fire consumed her to cause it, just as no exchange with Cain was ever made. The only catalyst was through the Singularity's visions.
Either way, they'll see.
Geralt returns the bottle to Jo a final time before he rises to leave. "I need to look in on Ciri."
He'll be back on the hour, as usual—but they both know that.
