[ As Ciri paces, Geralt watches. His voice is quiet. ] It did. After Thorne, I couldn't enter the Horizon for a time.
[ It's probably not an external force, is what he means. Yennefer's domain sits in the Horizon, no matter how twisted it's grown. Jaskier has been able to speak with her finally, not long ago. So her connection hasn't waned or disappeared. Just destabilized. He's never told anyone except Jaskier about the Horizon; to him, it'd felt only natural. That he wouldn't be able to focus for shit afterwards. But he knows Yennefer, without her magic nor the Horizon on top of that—she'd feel cut off, one more thing taken away from her.
The matter of Yennefer's loss of chaos and her inability to reach through the Singularity at first—the causes are interlinked, but not the same. He suspects that isn't why Ciri is asking. It's not theories and speculation about Yennefer's magic she's after. It's why this has affected all of them and only them.

The events of the Dimming may have disturbed the Singularity. It's had adverse effects on your magic in the past. [ He looks up at Ciri. There's a pause, but not hesitation. His gaze is firm. He is not blaming her. But nor does he want to hide what he thinks to protect her. That isn't what she needs. ] You have the power of foresight through dreams.
