Season 2 story
The Witcher Season 1’s finale saw Ciri and Geralt finally united, but also left Yennefer’s status unknown following the big battle with Nilfgaard. We can expect Season 2 to continue following Geralt and Ciri as they travel to Geralt’s home, Kaer Morhen, and certainly to address Yenn’s fate as well. It will most likely also continue to draw inspiration from the books, so if you’ve read the source material, you may know roughly what to expect. A page of a script Netflix late last year even hinted at one particular story to watch out for: “A Grain of Truth.”
Hissrich has also promised that referring to the , which saw storylines featuring the three main characters presented as parallel despite taking place decades apart. The showrunner said the simplified structure will be possible “now that the three characters’ stories have started to intersect.”
Hissrich also revealed one storyline she won’t be adapting from the books: Triss Merigold’s extended illness, about which the showrunner said, “No one wants to see Triss have diarrhea for three episodes.” Fair.
Other than that, all we have is the official plot synopsis from Netflix: “Convinced Yennefer’s life was lost at the Battle of Sodden, Geralt of Rivia brings Princess Cirilla to the safest place he knows, his childhood home of Kaer Morhen. While the Continent’s kings, elves, humans and demons strive for supremacy outside its walls, he must protect the girl from something far more dangerous: the mysterious power she possesses inside.”
