So basically it seems Lambert holds not hard feeling long term. Geralt - Had some other adjectives in mind.but different will do. Lambert - Mom always said I was different. Lambert - Wistles Dang.Going gets tough and you can count on me. Geralt - Hhh.Shortest version.Shes running from the Wild Hunt. Heard a sentimental sob coming from your gut, any Idea why she's returned? Geralt - nice to be together again, wouldn't you say? Upon talking to him he was friendly in tone and his only dialogue had nothing to do with Karadin. As soon as the cut scene ended Lambert's NPC was there and about to walk away so I quickly initiated conversation with him. I just completed this mission and spared Karadin. Its just too perfect of a tale about repercussions and decision making - and the line where you take it is as narrow as it gets. The extent to which this quest is crafted to be ambiguous - is great, great storytelling - and if it has received the attention to detail I presume it has - there probably wont be any negative repercussions, either way, - even in future expansions. But as a salomonic "judge" - you are not the one that takes his life in this situation. If his past catches up with him "another way" - morally it would seem "just". Should you kill him? It depends on how much you follow the ideals of humanistic enlightenment. So - Al Capone, Businessmann with dark trappings in his past - have you changed. The Witcher he killed back then seems to be circumstantial. And in a weird way - he hasnt even repented - which gets underlined by the fact that he lives in luxury.īut then - he has become a valuable member of society, and very probably doesnt deal in slaves any more. He probably was a slave trader - and he even doesnt show remorse with slaves. This is a quest about - if you really believe, that people can change or want to change - and if you are willing to act on it - despite all inklings pointing in a "might come back to bite you in the ass" direction. So - in the world of Witcher - he probably was. We dont know if he was a slave trader, but somehow this information bit lingered around, for two separate people to pick it up. His portrayal of what happened in the past makes sense - and then doesnt. Id say - possibly even without nefarious intent. And he is very willing to let the other Witchers judge him on it. He has pulled all the right trappings in his new life. The philanthropy part - we can ignore - it comes with being a wealthy business man - and how he wishes to portrait himself (there is no deep passion behind it). When he talks about his wife praying every day for him "and it maybe even seems to help" this is his own self image reflecting. He cuts the ties to his old group in a very distinct way - but without instilling in them a sense of betrayal ("there are other merchants in Novigrad. But his motivations for changing his life seem to be not remorse or guilt based, but to come from a desire to lead a new life. He feels a little remorse towards killing your pals friend - but this is almost circumstantial - but then again this might be ok. Together with the letter you find, which shows him wanting to break ties with his former colleagues, but at the same time hints at other possibilities for prolonging the slave trade. His side of the story seemingly doesnt add up in as far as he portraits the victim. His side of the story adds up in as far as the "real killer" shows signs of depression, alcohol abuse and disillusionment. The "you are expected, come in scene" and the "this is my family staged scene" is highly suspicious - but Karadin himself shows relief and upbeat anticipation upon meeting you. When you decide to kill him - he aggros with "I want to live" - no anger or remorse that his "ruse didnt work". Doesnt mean that he isnt lying - the game just isnt showing it to you. Reading facial expressions and having gone through all the dialog options this is Karadins profile.įrom a facial expression point of view - he doesnt lie. Right now I literally have two savestates having completed the quest both ways - this one is a real gut-wrencher.
