From the journal

Geralt ran into a suspicious gentleman who was looking for a woman who spoke in a strange, unknown tongue. He claimed they came from some far-off land far beyond the sea. She had kidnapped a child, and he had been tasked with finding and punishing her.

Geralt showed the shady gentleman the place where the woman was hiding then let him do as he wished. He had no intention of interfering in the internal affairs of a far-off and unknown country.

Geralt showed the shady gentleman where the woman was hiding, but did not let him hurt her. The story the man had told him seemed stretched and unlikely. Geralt defeated the fraud, and, unable to communicate with the woman, gave her a letter he had found on a corpse near the cave.

On a small isle in Skellige Geralt found a diary written by refugees from a far-off land. Their ship had wrecked and the fate of its passengers was unknown. Geralt hoped at least some had survived and he would one day have the chance to return this diary to them.

On Velen's seashore Geralt came across a the wreck of a ship. While looking the vessel over he noticed an unusual emblem - the same he had seen on a similar wreck in Skellige. As was the case then, he found no signs of any survivors.

In a certain Velen village Geralt came across a strange man speaking with a strange accent. The man struck Geralt as odd, even for a foreigner.
