Why did Dethmold kidnap Anais ? SPOLIERS

There is one detail that just puzzles me every time it happens.

What could Dethmold gain by Kidnapping Anais ? Even if Henselt dies he Kidnaps her.

I fail to understand this detail.I would appreciate it if someone explains it to me.

Dethmold did not kidnap her. Anais was kidnapped on her way to Loc Muinne by Maravel's people and delivered to nilfgaardians. That's why Dethmol calls her "Nilfgaard's most precious gift". Also Radovid tells Geralt and Roche that the girl was kidnapped by the Nilfgaardians. Nilfgaardians exchanged her for an invitation to Loc Muinne. Henselt was going to use her as a leverage on a summit, and, probably, to make land claims to Temeria. If Geralt and Roche save her, bring to the summit, and hand over to Radovid, if Henselt is alive, we have an awesome scene of a very disappointed Henselt.

So maravel was collaborating with Henselt and not directly Nilfgaard ? What do you think Dethmold would gain if Henselt is dead ? Give a troubled Kaedwen some advantage with Nilfgaard ?

From what I remember Maravel himself needed Anais to forward his goal of ruling Temeria? Why does he deliver her to Dethmold even if Henselt dies ?I mean wasn't Maravel trying to outplay Kimbolt ?

No, Maravel delivered the girl to Nilfgaardians. Nilfgaardians traded her for invitation to Loc Muinne. All of it happens before Henselt died. I think as soon as Shilard got an invitation, he left and gave the assassins go ahead signal.
I think Maravel, exactly like Kimbolt, wanted the royal children gone. With them still around he had not hope to get Temerian throne. But, instead of out-right killing them (as Kinbolt planned), he simply sold them to Nilfgaardians. If Henselt dies, Dethmold "inherits" the girl, so to speak. What he was planning on doing with her, we don't really know.

He probably just doesn't want the other kings to have Anais, if Henselt doesn't gain power no one should. Dethmold might've gone and did Hanmarvyn's Blue Dream on Henselt and found out Roche killed him, if so he might seek revenge in W3.

Whoah! I think the chance of dethmold being alive is really slim though...If henselt loses philippa demands that Dethmold gets executed and if you help roche on his path we know what happens $_$

Now even if we don't help roche I believe he acquires Anais still...Does Dethmold ever get to live ?
