“Farewell, Ciri. Farewell, Swallow. “Farewell, Old Raven.”

“Yes, O hermit. That’s how you fight Evil! If Evil wants to do you harm, inflict pain on you—anticipate it, ideally when Evil isn’t expecting it. If, though, you didn’t manage to anticipate Evil, if you were harmed by Evil, then pay it back! Catch it, ideally when it has forgotten, when it feels safe. Pay it back twofold. Threefold. An eye for an eye? No! Both eyes for an eye! A tooth for a tooth? No! All its teeth for a tooth! Pay Evil back! Make it howl with pain, so its eyeballs burst from its howling. And then, looking down at the floor, you may confidently say: what’s lying there won’t harm anybody any longer, it won’t threaten anyone. For how can it threaten anyone without any eyes? If it has no hands? How can it do any harm when its guts are trailing over the sand, and the gore is soaking into it?”
― Andrzej Sapkowski, The Tower of Swallows

“You may turn around.” “Lady of the Lake—” “And introduce yourself.” “I am Galahad, of Caer Benic. A knight of King Arthur, the lord of Camelot, the ruler of the Summer Land, and also of Dumnonia, Dyfneint, Powys, Dyfedd…”
― Andrzej Sapkowski, The Lady of the Lake
