Francesca Findabair and her eternal symbology. Man. To Nilfgaard she’s the symbol of Elven alliance, to the Lodge she’s Dol Blathnna’s complacency and the encyclopedia of Ciri’s bloodline, to the elder races she’s the image of bourgeois betrayal of the oppressed common people, to the Elven aristocracy she’s a call to power, to her father she’s the failure of the liberal youth, to the scoiatael she’s proof of Nilfgaard’s final betrayal, she’s a metaphor for everything but she’s unable to act!!!! Even within the narrative she’s a means to deliver exposition and prompt emotion in other characters!!!!! She’s known for her beauty she lives behind a window she exists to be stared at and contemplated she’s nothing she’s everything!!!!!!!!!!!
