![]() The best they can hope for is being able to move on, but we can’t change who we are or what we really feel. They have a nice conversation about how special she is, and about how, despite her desire to be like Geralt, indifferent to the lies and the past and the things she has done, the world doesn’t work that way. ![]() Luckily, Geralt, who heard Ciri’s call for help, returns to Kaer Morhen just in time to prevent this from going ahead. But the process of becoming a Witcher is exceptionally dangerous, and it’s a very risky move. This only increases Ciri’s desire to become the first test subject of the new Witcher mutagen, which she agrees to help Vesemir create from her blood. ![]() After the vision, Triss is petrified of Ciri, claiming she’ll destroy the world. By the end of the adventure through the dreamscape, Triss has been choked, Ciri has gotten a clear glimpse of the Wild Hunt, and her frantic calls for Geralt’s help cause the Earth to shake to its very foundations. Triss wants to take her on a walking tour through visions of her past, though the whole thing goes topsy-turvy when it becomes clear that the people in the visions can see her - which isn’t supposed to happen. ![]() Geralt, for instance, goes to see Istredd, an expert on the Conjunction of the Spheres and the Monoliths, leaving Ciri in the care of Vesemir and Triss.
