![]() Even still, Tissaia was the one overseeing the meeting of the Northern monarchs putting out a bounty on Ciri and those associated with her, so things seem potentially bad. ![]() Tissaia, Yen’s mentor at the mage school Aretuza, remains loyal and sympathetic to Yen, and asks her romantic paramour Vilgefortz to do the same. Though they’d part ways when Cahir heads to Cintra to go back to serving the White Flame (more on that later), Yen would continue to be seen as a traitor in the eyes of the Brotherhood, and particularly its governing council. Instead, she releases Cahir and the two go on the run. The council decrees she can prove her loyalty by executing Cahir, the White Flame’s most trusted general who had been chasing Ciri. Yennefer is considered “a traitor” by the Brotherhood Image: NetflixĪfter the Battle of Sodden, when Yen used her fire magic to hold back the Nilfgaardian forces from invading the North, the Brotherhood of Sorcerers began to suspect Yen was a traitor (because she was missing after the battle, where she used up all her magic trying to save everybody. While she was sad that her abilities and place in the world had cost her so much - including the lives of loved ones - Geralt encouraged her to follow his credo of staying out of things as much as she could (and telling her she couldn’t turn herself into a Witcher using a special serum, even when it was made from her blood dads, amirite?). ![]() Most pointedly, Geralt spent a lot of season 2 trying to help Ciri understand what her talents were good for. Geralt will continue teaching her in the ways of the Witcher and how to defend herself, while Yen handles Cirilla’s magic education and the honing of her rather significant magical gifts. In trying to find her, Lydia attempts to use a blood tracing spell on the Witcher mutagen made from Ciri’s blood, and the spell leaves her horribly disfigured.īut Ciri is safe (and training) with Geralt and YenĪfter the events of the second season finale bring them together (more on that below), Geralt, Ciri, and Yen come together to helm Ciri’s education. Rience crosses paths with Geralt, Yen, and Ciri once, but they all escape (and Yen manages to use fire magic to burn his face). Fire mage Rience (Chris Fulton) was looking for Ciri all throughout the second season, working for fellow mage Lydia van Bredevoort (Aisha Fabienne Ross) to do so - who in turn is working for a mysterious lord who we don’t know about yet.The other Northern monarchs put a bounty on Ciri and anyone who protects her, because simply “Princess Crilla created far less trouble for us when she was dead.”.The Redanians - and specifically their spymaster Sigismund Dijkstra (Graham McTavish) - want to marry Ciri to their king, Vizimir, so they can shore up their claim to Cintra.So far their motive beyond that is somewhat opaque, but suffice it to say they’re bad news. The Wild Hunt want Ciri because she has Elder Blood.So she and her clan also join the hunt for Ciri. After her baby was murdered, elf leader Francesca (Mecia Simson) learns of Ciri’s Elder blood and believes Ciri is the elves’ only hope for rebuilding their society.There are also more personal reasons, like the fact that season 2’s finale revealed Emhyr is actually Ciri’s long lost father Duny. Emhyr, aka The White Flame, aka the emperor of Nilfgaard, wants Ciri to shore up his claim to the Cintran throne, which he’s already taken control of.No, like actually: Everybody and their mums are lookin’ out for the Princess of Cintra. So get ready to blast off in a rocket fuelled Starfield performance preview.Photo: Susie Allnut/Netflix Image: Netflix Photo: Susie Allutt/Netflix Top to bottom: The elves, White Flame, Rience the fire mage, and Redanian spymaster Dijkstra, all of whom are trying to get Ciri for their own (nefarious) purposes Photo: Susie Allnutt/Netflix We also compare the improvements over the previous showing, enhancements within the engine, and much more. The biggest question after the show(s) was: why is it 30fps on Xbox Series X and Series S and not 60fps? In this IGN Performance preview, we dive into the details shared by the team, the revealed PC minimum and recommended specifications, and how the Creation Engine 2 works, comparing the previous games to gauge some of the potential reasons why the team might have chosen 30fps. With Starfield being the center of the Xbox 2023 Showcase last week, Bethesda gave us a deep dive into one of the biggest games this generation.
