When they arrived in Vizima, Geralt and Garito were sent to wash and dress properly before the audience.

And now Garito was taking a bath and being washed by three beautiful maids. But suddenly Chamberlain came into the room and told the maids to go.

Garito: What a way to ruin my fun.

Chamberlain: The gentleman is not here to have "fun" but is here to hear what His Majesty has to offer.

Garito got up and put a towel around his waist.

Garito: I hope Emhyr has something interesting to offer.

Chamberlain: The gentleman will refer to His Majesty by his full title or not at all.

Garito: In that case, I choose not at all.

Chamberlain: The gentleman will be seated on the bergère.

Garito: On what now?

Chamberlain then pointed to a chair.

Chamberlain: In that... chair.

Garito: You should have said it right away.

Garito sat down on a chair. Then Chamberlain turned to the barber who had arrived.

Chamberlain: Cledwyn. Please shave the gentleman - to smooth

Garito: Wait I don't have a beard, so what do you want to shave?

Chamberlain: The gentleman has a little on the sideburns, it is not elegant.

Garito: Fine, let's go, Cled.

Cledwyn: Tilt you head back, please. And sit still.

Cledwyn put shaving foam on Garito, then took the razor. But suddenly the Nilfgaardian general arrived.

Nilfgaardian general: And prepare to answer some questions.

Chamberlain: General, I am not certain this is the appropriate time.

Nilfgaardian general: I can't think of a better time. Man turn honest when they feel a blade at their throat.

Garito: He's right, I've experienced it at both ends.

The Nilfgaardian general came to Garito and introduced himself.

Nilfgaardian general: Morvran Voorhis, commander of the Alda Division. Before they take you and your master to see the emperor, there's some information I need you to verify. It's a formality, but one that must be seen to.

Garito: Feel free to ask while I have razors at my throat.

Morvran: So, Garito of Baskerville. Such a tragedy as it was, I never heard anything worse.

Garito: I know, but it's a thing of the past. The only thing that keeps the name Baskerville alive is me.

Morvran: All right no, place of birth - unkwon, perents - father: unknown and mother: mercenary. An interesting woman is your mother.

Garito: I know right. People say she's the best mercenary. But when I was born, she quitted and raise me then she adopted a girl who became my sister.

Morvran: Interesting, what's your mother's name?

Garito: She has no name. They just told her what she looked like, red eyes like mine and blacker hair than Yennefer's. But everyone agreed to call her Raven.
