In the morning however Caerthynna got a surprise, it was a bunch of wild flowers delivered by a poor boy who said it came from the ferryman who had been given it by some elf in the swamp.
"Thank you." Said Caerthynna to him and have the boy some money in exchange it was only 15 orens. People usually give him 5 so he was happy.

"Geralt do you know what these flowers are?" Caerthynna asked when she saw him going out to the docks.
" Yes, they are begertick blossoms. They are found in the swamp. Who got you those? " he asked. "You have also got Feainnewedd, also found in the swamp quite a rare flower. You must have an admirer."

"I would like to find out myself so can I come with you?" Caerthynna asked him.
"I don't see why not."

" How much to take two people to the swamp? " Caerthynna asked the ferryman.
"20 orens" he said. So they paid the money and travelled to the swamp.

The swamp turned out to be a dark murkey  place where monsters roam, it also had loads of plants.
Geralt stopped at a small village deep inside the swamp where people where busy making bricks out of clay.  Geralt spoke the village elderess called Vaska asking for jobs.

"Go and find out about the lumberjacks and the druids and take that young lass with you she will be useful to you in due time." Vaska said. " I must pray to the water lords now come my bretheren. "
And all of the brickmakers entered her house and prayed to the statue she had inside.

Luckily Geralt knew exactly where to go.
"Caerthynna come with me, let's visit the druids where I found you in the first place. The lumberjacks are not as welcoming to strangers such as us." He said leading her towards the druids grove.

The druids grove was busy with tame monsters that the druids had spent ages on.  Geralt spotted Yeavinn and went over to talk to him leaving Caerthynna who was spotted by the dryad who was there as well.

"Hello young lady my name is Moreen. I see you came with the witcher whom I don't remember his name. Care to tell me it?" She asked her.
" You mean Geralt? " Caerthynna replied.
"Yes, Geralt. Have you by any chance had sex with him?"
" No, not at all why would I do that to a person whom I have only just met. "
"Excuse me it seems another person or mainly elf wants to talk to you. Good bye or va fail young lady. '

" Caerthynna, how ess taedh? Sorry I meant how are you? " said Yaevinn to her.
"I'm fine or in your tounge it's Essea yeá. See I have learnt a bit when I was away from Geralt." She replied.
" Are you sure you didn't guess Caerthynna? " said Geralt to her winking. Caerthynna just pouted in reply.

"Did you receive the Feinneweed?"
" I did, they were very pretty. Did you give me them? " she asked Yeavinn.
"Not me in particular it was one of my recruits. I will be pleased to tell him you enjoyed them. And by the way are you thinking of joining up?"
"Yes I was. What do you want me to do Yeavinn."
