Joke's on you! I don't even have a copy of Photoshop!
Admittedly, considering the nature of the site, alternative software is certainly more fitting.
Dawe, Anthony, they saw the guitar when the MC arrived.
Honestly, I doubt any of the jocks could differentiate between a Martin, Yamaha, or Taylor, much less a specific model. But maybe I'm just reading way too much into it.
Theft happens after Cafeteria and after Quinn and Riona leaves toilets and spot MC.
Unless I'm misremembering, there's a lot of time between MC getting kicked out of the dorm in the morning and coming back to see the guitar gone, though.
So.. Troy owes Dawe or Quinn, by proxy, some money, Dawe and another jock (but not Chad) come in, see the guitar, decide to take it as a collateral or just out of spite?
On one hand, it's straight up theft that could get them kicked out. On the other... it's Dawe. Though I'd much more see him as somebody outright smashing the guitar than taking it. How would he know Sage was interested in playing it? Sure, Chad might have mentioned it, but... that's so much behind the scenes stuff.
Dunno, the whole setup feels kinda messy looking at it this way, but maybe it wasn't something as important for DPC as to try to focus on it to that degree.
I really hope there's some flashback or conversation that clarifies it in the future.
I read The Last Wish, Sword of Destiny, and I was halfway through Blood of Elves. I was going to start reading them again but I got sucked into a new game
and that would interesting to see them in aVN
In the books, Ciri has nowhere near the level of control that she does in the game.
She can basically plane-travel (or however you want to call it), but the whole "combat-warping" is CDPR's invention.
Not saying she couldn't learn something similar with time and (self)-training, since we don't know the extent of her abilities, but going by author's canon material it's certainly far less utilitarian.
In a theoretical adversarial setting, I doubt she'd be able to hold out against Geralt, considering she's not mutated (and he is), and has nowhere near the decades of his practice and training.
And Yennefer (or any other similarly accomplished mage) can wipe the floor with Geralt, easily.
