    Summary

    “Who’s the Sandpiper?”
    Everyone in Redania had heard of the Sandpiper. Nobody had ever seen them. A shadow who could get through any door and open any lock. Who freed the elves and smuggled them to Cintra. Who had built a network of people who worked in the underground to save those oppressed by the new Redanian laws.
    The club came down on Geralt’s right arm. Bone snapped. He gritted his teeth against the pain.
    “The Sandpiper, witcher. Who is he?”
    “Why don’t you ask your mother?”

    - Redanian soldiers capture Geralt when he's weak from his fight against the ghouls near Sodden. He doesn't expect the Sandpiper to save him and the two squirrels he shares his cell with.

    Summary

    Jaskier has known that being half-elf means he doesn't really belong anywhere. As a travelling bard, he doesn't really mind all too much. Things only start getting complicated when he stumbles on that sense of "home".

    Gods, don't let him mess this up.

    Summary

    Now though, the roles have switched. Now it was Jaskier, who was fully amused, hiding a smile behind his hand, as Yennefer was still muttering under her breath about how she will curse the damn bard to hell and back. He truly didn’t know why she wasn’t using common, since at this point he didn’t even need to understand Elder to know she was angry. But, just for the sake of it…
    “Yennefer, dearest wife, what are you muttering there?” he asked, and only his experience on stage saved him from his mouth twitching upwards, as she turned towards him, her violet eyes gentling in its stare minutely, as she tried to compose herself.
    “I was just saying, that this friend of yours is very talented” she answered, without a blink of an eye. Liar, Jaskier thought but decided to play that game.

    Or. Two times when Geralt and Yennefer discovered that Jaskier knows Elder by accident, and one when he used it on purpose.

    Summary

    This is the various conlang dialogue I translated for Netflix's The Witcher. The language featured in the show, Hen Linge (also referred to as the Elder Speech), is based on words and phrases that can be found in Andrzej Sapkowski's Witcher book series. Almost all of his material was incorporated, though there were a few inconsistencies that needed to be ironed out. And, of course, where new material was needed, I created it. Sapkowski's original conception for the language featured many words from existing natlangs, albeit altered. Where I created new words, they were a priori.

    This now also includes the Roozh Linge dialogue from The Witcher: Sirens of the Deep. Roozh Linge is an aposteriori language Jessie Peterson and I created together.

    Summary

    The Witcher is scanning the forest with his yellow golden eyes, looking for something. Looking for him, Jaskier understands with growing fright. Like he has sensed Jaskier’s magic.
    Oh no, oh please no.

    “Where are you?” the Witcher growls.

    ---

    When a Witcher enters Jaskier’s forest to kill him, the Dryad is terrified and hides in a tree. Earlier experiences with a Witcher have left their scars on him. Faith be it that said Witcher sets up camp right underneath that same tree. Almost frozen to death, Jaskier is discovered the next morning and has to face his fear of Witchers, putting all his trust in the promises of Geralt.

    Summary

    “He’s just passing through,” the scarred elf says to the watchers in the trees. “But he’s not trespassing, of course. That’s good. We don’t like tresspassers, after all,” he adds offhandedly to Roche, as though he might not be aware that he’s deeply, sorely, fucked. “If you’re not a tresspasser, then you won’t mind paying the toll to use our roads. Since you’re just passing through.”

    (Roche runs afoul of a group of bandits somewhere between Nazair and Sodden.)

    “Now, are you still willing?” 

    He gapes for a moment. “Willing?” he asks, and then he catches up. Can we help her? We can, if there is anyone willing.

    Sweet fucking Melitele.

    “Yes,” he answers.

    An elvish ritual has an unintended effect on Ciri, and it falls to Dara to help her.

    Summary

    Two days after the incident at Dol Blathanna, the edge of the world, Geralt turns to Jaskier and asks him how he knows Elder.

    Jaskier knows Elder. Geralt can't work out how - and when he asks, Jaskier's replies are always flighty and vague. How is it that the bard can speak the language of the elves?
