Maarloeve decides to work with Geralt to uncover the [[Salamandra]] criminal organization's location and intentions as they have something in common, their hatred of Salamandra. Over the course of one conversation, although Raymond does not say so directly, we hear the story of how his wife and son were murdered in a grisly home invasion which was also the work of Salamandra. His wife was discovered pinned to the kitchen door with a spear, his dog had been shot, and his son was kidnapped and subjected to horrible mutations which ended in his premature death only six months later as a monster. His only recognizable feature being a sixth toe. Raymond, or ''"the father"'' in Raymond's story, then devoted the rest of his life to finding their murderers. |
