A Midnight Clear is a quest in the Hearts of Stone expansion.

Journal entry[ | ]

Though Vlodimir had returned to the nether realms, the night was still young and the wedding not yet over. Shani, dejected at the thought that Geralt would soon return to his many pressing concerns, was sitting alone at one of the tables, staring glumly at the crowd of merrymakers. Master Mirror advised Geralt that a bouquet of flowers or some tasty liqueur might cheer her up.
If Geralt chooses rowan blossoms:
Geralt, remembering Shani's love for rowan blossoms, brought her a branch of them, which she delightedly plaited into her hair. Oh, if you'd only seen her then… She looked lovely, radiant, even.
If Geralt chooses mead or the rowanberry brandy:
Geralt decided fortified beverages make the best pick-me-ups, and so brought Shani an ample flask.
If Geralt chooses the romance option:
The witcher took Shani on a long walk by the river and then… then they got in a boat and, as Geralt told it to me, rowed to the moon. Could my friend be turning into something of a romantic? Or perhaps he always was one? One way or the other, a pleasant afternoon and eventful evening spent together lasted until the break of dawn, during which time they... you'll forgive me if I spare you the details.
If Geralt does not choose the romance option:
Geralt took Shani aside for a long walk by the river – and a heart-to-heart chat. This turn of events was the natural conclusion to a day full of emotions and discoveries – after all that, who wouldn't want to sit down in a quiet spot with an old friend and talk about past times? Shani and Geralt certainly did, and so they talked and laughed until night turned to day, then parted, each returning to his or her own life.
