[ The answer takes a long time to come. Geralt is not ignoring it. Reflecting, possibly. He knows these things. They've been friends for a long time. He came back and Jaskier did not turn him away. If there's one human he will never doubt will remain by his side, it's Jaskier.
But knowing and being told, so explicitly, are two different things. And he is not a man who often puts what's most important to him into words.
So he does not. Instead, the next time Jaskier visits his domain, he will find Moglad drinking by magical luminesce of a bird-shaped light. The graceful design suggests Geralt likely received some assistance on how it should appear. Who from? Fuck knows. Maybe it was one person, maybe several. Maybe he created it after seeing something like it in the Aquila markets. Geralt will not say. He will not, in fact, acknowledge the lamp at all or that he gifted it—though the moogle naturally will not be able to keep this information to itself. ]
