[ Geralt lifts a hand in something of a shrug. ] Worlds, planets.
[ To him, they're one and the same. Long over are the days when he believed the spheres were consumed during the Conjunction; they're obviously out there. The doors have merely closed. Until Ciri. Until—apparently—the Singularity. If the monoliths on the Continent can be used to travel between them, then why not the one here? ]
None that they showed us. [ So that leaves room for debate. He's not certain showing them would have done much to convince, either. Whatever they've learned, it's likely related to a magical theory or experiment. Information the Summoned could not confirm on their own. ] But the truth was compelled from the High Mage by one of us. A man who later...found himself in my cell. [ And slated for execution, as things tend to go when you breach a court's trust. ] Whether or not it's objectively a fact, Ambrose at least believes it is.
[ Which is all that matters. One could argue about Ithlinne's prophecy until the unicorns return; it won't change that the elves believe in it, that they're willing to go to war and pursue a girl over it. Thorne started something when it became the first to pull the Summoned through—and regardless of their reasons for it, it's too late to undo it. ]
