"Same for witchers," Geralt said, around some of the greasy squirrel. "Except a witcher always dies violently, we don't get old and infirm. Lifespan is too long for that. Oldest I'd had the pleasure of knowing was Vesemir, the man who taught me everything I know. At the time of his death, he was nearly four hundred years old. He looked, maybe, into his fifties. Though I've heard of longer-lived witchers, mostly from the Griffin school, south of the Northern Kingdoms."
He was surprised, actually, that the Qunari should live relatively human lifespans, though he knew barely anything about them.
Geralt didn't often like to think of lifespans at all. It reminded him too thoroughly that Dandelion was now around the Bull's age also.
