This first meeting between Yennefer and Geralt turns out to be pretty intense as both seem to be unaware of each other’s capabilities. This unawareness then becomes a topic of discussion between the two. Yennefer agrees to treat Jaskier; in return, Geralt has to make a favour to her. Yennefer’s real intention is to keep the djinn for herself under the pretence of treating Jaskier. Yennefer successfully gets rid of Geralt with the help of a spell delivered in the form of a kiss.
