        Yen desperately wants to give birth to a child and tries all means to achieve it. 


        Geralt endures an insomnia so he “fishes” in a lake in a attempt to catch a djinn – so that he can make a wish to have a sleep. Jaskier shows up when Geralt catches an amphora bearing a wizard's seal. The seal is opened and the djinn  is released, Jaskier makes 2 wishes, but they breaks the amphora by mistakes, then the djinn attacks  Jaskier, making him terribly ill.








        THE DJINN AND YEN


        Thanks to the introduction of an elf healer, Geralt comes to Yen’s place to ask for help to heal Jaskier, she agrees. Romance doesn't seem to be blooming yet, but it's clear they enjoy each other's company.  Meanwhile, Yen also wants to use the djinn  to cure her infertility. With some efforts, Yennefer clouds Geralt's mind and sends him to sleep – actually a day dream in which he unconsciously punishes some local authorities as a revenge for Yen on behalf.


        Yen uses her magic to help cure Jaskier but in the mean time, she also wants to become a vessel to contain the djinn in order to make herself more powerful. She is in deadly danger because actually Jaskier is not the djinn’s master, and he can not make the last of the 3 wishes to finish the process. It’s Geralt who shows up in time to do it, and saves her. They fall in love.

          In this episode, there is flashback of the time before Ciri was born. Jaskier is going to perform at a banquet organized by Queen Calanthe of Cintran (who died in episode 1). Jaskier has been sleeping around with a number of Cintran ladies,  he is afraid that some of the lords may attack him so he needs Geralt to join the banquet as a "bodyguard" just in case.

          That is a marriage feast thrown for Calanthe's daughter -  Princess Pavetta, and suitors from different kingdoms are in attendance as candidates.  They one by one greet the Queen and loudly introduce their profiles, but princess Pavetta seems  interested in none of them.


          Then a masked man shows up and reveals himself to be Lord Urcheon of Erlenwald, and is welcomed by Pavetta. Queen Calanthe uses force to remove his mask to finally see him as a half-man, half-hedgehog. Calanthe orders Geralt to slay the knight, but the witcher refuses on saying that  this is no monster. In stead, Geralt joins the knight against the attacks by royal guards.








          Years ago, Urcheon saved the life of Calanthe's husband, then King Roegner. In return he claimed the Law of Surprise, which means that Urcheon would be offered with a boon – the firstborn child of King Roegner (being Princess  Pavetta) .  Calanthe is not pleased, so she cheats to kill Urcheon  with a stabber. Pavetta  suddenly summons the magic power to create a devastating dust storm to end the fight and embraces Urcheon. Actually, they've met before, secretly forming a bond.   


          Finally, the Queen is decided to honor the Law of Surprise: Pavetta and Urcheon  are to be married, and Urcheon returns to his human shape just with a kiss. Calanthe insists Geralt be rewarded for his efforts, and he eventually claims the Law of Surprise unintentionally. And just as he does, Pavetta vomits: she's pregnant—with, you guessed it, Ciri. And that’s destiny. 


          Years later, when Ciri grows up, Calanthe does not want to honor the Law of Surprise with Geralt because she wants to keep Ciri with her. It’s believed that her break of the destiny leads to the failure of Cintra in the battle against Nilfgaard’s invasion.

          In Temeria, the out-of-money Geralt  is convinced by spirited sorceress Triss to save a monster born by Adda  - the sister of King Foltest.  Through many researches and investigations, Geralt finds out that such monster is actually a striga—a woman transformed into a monster by a curse, as a result of King Foltest impregnating his sister.

          That striga is so powerful and fierce that so far no body can defeat it, and it also killed an unknown witcher. To lift the curse and save the striga, Geralt has a horrible fight with the creature in a full moon night and is overpowered in many hits. Finally, he can manage to climb into its mother Adda’s tomb and closes the lid, preventing the striga from entering into until the dawn.  The next morning, the striga has turned into a female human, but the instincts make her attack Geralt badly-wounded and unconsciously.

Yen later comes  to know that it was Istredd  who revealed her secret, their relation breaks up.

          Yennefer comes to  confront a sorcerer, challenging him to make her beautiful.  He gets it done, turning her into a stunning Yen, at the price of removing her womb - she'll never be able to have children.  In a new perfect appearance, she approaches King Virfuril of Aedirn at the dance, in such a charming way that he declares to choose her as his mage, instead of another mage previously selected.

They make a fire, cooking and eating a couple of rats. Then she spots Cintran flags of her people and come for them,  but the Rat Boy vanishes.

A strange man comes to Geralt and asks him to kill a devil stealing his grain. Geralt agrees to the deal and sets off to hunt the devil, and Jaskier  decides to tag along, much to his dismay. On the way, Jaskier makes the mistake of referring to Geralt as the Butcher of Blaviken and get a punch in the gut.

However, Yennefer fails in most practices while the other girls can do well.  Feeling powerless, she crosses a bridge leading to the Tower of  Gull  where she re-meets Istredd.  During their later secret meetings, Istredd explains to her the origins of the Tower of Gull,  and Yennefer reveals to him that her real father was half-elf, and died in the Great Cleansing, that’s why she  is cursed with a twisted spine.

He and Jaskier are tied together in a cave where they meet Filavandrel, the King of the Elves ("not by choice").  Filavandrel  tells them about the Great Cleansing—when humans learned magic from the elves then used it against them, driving them from their homes, and prepares to execute Geralt.  But Torque steps in, telling the King how Geralt had spared his life and persuades to let him go.

During the feast, Queen Calanthe receives bad news that the Nilfgaardian Empire is marching on the city, imposing big threat to her kingdom's future.


          On the outskirts of Blaviken, Geralt gathers herbs to make one of those potions he's so fond of then Renfri appears, tells him that she was a Princess once, but Stregobor's men raped and cast her out of her kingdom, forcing her into desperate life. She's in Blaviken actually to seek revenge. This makes Geralt have to pick sides in Stregobor and Renfri's rivalry, so eventually he tells her to leave the town and forget the revenge. Bubble of sexual tension finally bursts between them and they spend the night together.


          Outside Cintra, a fierce battle erupts between the Cintrans and the Nilfgaardian invaders—with Queen Calanthe and King Eist fighting on the front lines. An arrow by Cahir from remote suddenly slams into the King's eye, killing him instantly. The Queens retreats to the castle. The battle is lost and it's not long before the invaders reach Cintra and conquer it and slaughter all the people they meet. 


          Before her suicide, the Queen tells Ciri to escape and find Geralt of Rivia – the man of her destiny.  Ciri is whisked away by Mousesack and Lazlo, but the black rider who killed the King earlier approaches and takes her away on the horse.


          Back to Blaviken, Renfri seems to have had second thoughts about Geralt's proposal, so Geralt returns to the village to find Renfri where he fights with Renfri's men on the street. Then Renfri emerges from the shadows, holding Marilka hostage, threatening to kill all villagers. Geralt finally kills Renfri in the dramatic duel.

          Back to Cintra, Ciri’s screams causes the horse to panic and kick her and her captor off, her next screams shakes the earth, giving her a chance to flee, escape into the woods.


          In Blaviken, Stregobor appears and intends to take Renfri's body to his tower for an autopsy, but Geralt  urges him to leave her alone. But before he can act, the villagers turn on him, calling him  a beast, the Butcher of Blaviken, throw stones at him, and force him to immediately leave the town.
