okay in the books the idea that francesca findabair wants to genocide all the humans is heavily implied to be propaganda about her alliance with nilfgaard (and the real stakes of dol blathana and the payment the empire demands are revealed later) and not uhhhhhhhhh her actual stated opinion. what is going on

#witcher writers i am looking you directly in the eye. time of contempt is 95% political intrigue but the stakes are not genocide v genocide #it’s northern court mages who do not care about the plight of the elves but seek power in their own realms and against nilfgaard #vs #mages and elves employed by nilfgaard to collapse the north’s power structures to be conquered (and in return the elves get a protectorate)#out of every party findabair has the LEAST power-hungry and destructive motives. and yet her aspirations will end in a scoia’tael massacre #the witcher spoilers #the witcher
