"That one is for monsters"
Curious: is there any explanation in the books of why witchers carry two swords? I know that the silver sword is a bit lighter than the steel one; and in-game, for some arbitrary reason, it does very little damage to non-monsters. However, how is it explained in the books? I mean, if you hit someone with a sharp blade, silver or not, you'll inflict a wound; a creature with silver sensitivity will suffer more, but there's no reason I can think of that a non-silver-sensitive target should suffer less.I'm sure there's an explanation in the books, but what is it?
