' the lodge never started a war, the lodge never send thousands of men to death for 'honor', the lodge operated for peace, tried to asure a place for magic in the world, the lodge tried to save ciri, the lodge acted more moature than the northern kings and queens together, the lodge is made of intelligent, powerful and well respected women. always watch the POV. ;) everyone can be good or bad from the right point of view. '

this is a bit dumb. the lodge is definitely wrong in terms of trying to control Ciri's future. I couldn't agree more with this full explanation: 'Few hate them for being all women. That's like saying that secretive societies such as the Freemasons, the Bohemian Grove, etc., which have been accused of 'secretly running the world' are hated for being almost entirely male. You're talking out your arse.

They're hated for being a conspiracy to rule the world of the Northern realms.... .... The only people genuinely trying to save Ciri with no strings attached were Geralt and Yen. ' January 16 by A Fandom user  Add some things in hands, it's so hard to understand their perspective, because they were made to be like that from the start, at least most of them i think. Even I do believe that if Yen or Triss haven't met or lived with Ciri yet to the point of really cared for her, these two would've done the same action and made the same decision as their 'sisters'.

For me the most suspicious of them is definitely Phillipa, and eventhough she let Ciri and Yen go to Geralt at Rivia, i think she did that because maybe (from that Ouroboros analogy) she already knew about Geralt's fate, and that's why I think she is the most dangerous with her own agenda and ambition. I wouldn't be much surprised if she would trample her sisters' head  down at the very end when all of her plans succeeded. I see the similar desire between her and Vilgevortz and it is clear as day for me to notice it from the way she controlled the flow of Lodge.

It's a pity that Andrzej left too many  questions  about the conflicts which happened in the novel. Regardless of his decision to really not care about it because he wanted to write the story solely only centered about Geralt and his loved ones, it's still ended in such disheartening way. It is really a shame, considering that these conflicts have so many potentials. I still respect him though, and now after i read it all, i guess i can understand why CDPR really had the nerve asking him to let them continue his story in a different medium, while all in all it's still considered storytelling.
