SHE HAD WONDERED MUCH ABOUT THE SORCERESS OF THEIR BLOOD, beauty and power in equal measure, able to live freely amongst the humans, if she so wished. A fate her own mother abhors for her people but Liserne would at least want to provide the luxury of choice. (Not being hunted like dogs and executed for the crime of wanting better.)

"And you have no doubt heard about the bloodshed where i'm concerned. It would be cruel to judge." Not that she had asked for it, to be stolen or the aftermath - babes dead in her name, her culture denied to her. She thinks they have that in common somewhat, but where Liserne eventually stumbled into those of their kind, it seems Yennefer was truly denied.

"Do I?" The most she's seen of her mother have been in stolen glances, the Dol Durza unveiling the truth about who she was meant to be, how wanted she was? And then reality had settled in, the closer her birth had come, how unwilling her mother was to accept those she considered outsiders, who were denied their songs, their language, their heritage by nothing more than human hatred. Why would her own daughter be any different.

"I am sorry she was cruel to you."

Assorted Prompts - @lunedaepenid mused: ❛ you’re not as bad as everyone says you are. ❜ / for yennefer!

Yennefer wasn't surprised actually that her reputation proceeded her, given how much she had angered the Brotherhood in her time. She was on most wanted lists, she was an enemy to some other mages, and well...she didn't want to be an enemy to the elves because she was part elven, but when it came to Ciri, Yennefer was ready to make enemies there as well.

So, it made her feel better that Liserne didn't see her that way.

"I've no doubt you've heard nothing but tales of bloodshed where I'm concerned...and if not bloodshed, then no doubt DEATH." Yennefer explained, looking at the girl and taking a breath. "You know...you look like your mother..."
