Love when Geralt falls Jaskiers rushes to his side, wants to touch him and help him but then put away his hands. Because he knew Geralt would never forgive himself if he would accept Jaskiers help in that moment. And he doesn’t want Jaskiers help because it is Geralts fight
And jaskier respected that boundary.

The Witcher Netflix - 3x08 Episode Reaction In season 3 of The Witcher Netflix we got our first look inside the Nilfgaardian Empire. I was taken by surprise because sometimes I think the show isn't subtle with certain things. Sometimes showing without telling. Or telling without showing in a way doesn't offer viewers enough information to understand the impact of a creative choice. The glimpses we got of Nilfgaard are, in my opinion, a subtle bit of worldbuilding that doesn't lose its impact without showing too much or telling too little. In the books Nilfgaard's culture and history, its military strategy--it's all pastiche from different historical empires. That is a hallmark of Sapko's style. I'm sure other people have spoken more definitively about that on tumblr and elsewhere. CDPR absorbed a lot of Roman Empire influences from the books for its own take for Nilfgaard. And now we can see TWN's production is also picking up on that as well and going with Eastern Roman Empire (Byzantine) flavor. So let me share a few screenshots from episode 3x08 that caught my eye. This is a mini-commentary with some thoughts, not a deep analysis. We had this establishing shot of a Nilfgaardian city (which I'm presuming to be the capital). This looks like Constantinople to me.

A modern day photo of Constantinople ruins for comparison:

Next we have Emhyr with several men dressed in what comes off as very Eastern Orthodox-inspired vestments, right down to the monastic headwear (mitre, I think?). I'll leave more the in depth TWN and costume critical takedown to perseruna. But those hats definitely kept screaming Eastern Orthodoxy at me and making me circle back to Eastern Roman Empire.
Tumblr media
And finally we have this scene of Francesca and Fringilla in the church. In all of my groupchats everyone was losing their mind about their conversation and heartbreak. But I was losing my mind over the fact that they were a) in a Nilfgaardian church or temple and b) this shot was framed in such a way to show us the statue of an ambiguous church figure in the background. Standing in between Fringilla and Francesca, no less.
I can't help but think this might be a statue of the Nilfgaardian Emperor who, in the books, is implied to be a prophet or important figure in the religious sphere.
Tumblr media
"...Recently the main topic of preaching has been of a Saviour who will come from the south. From the south! From beyond the Yaruga!” “The White Flame,” muttered Demavend. “White Chill will come to be, and after it the White Light. And then the world will be reborn through the White Flame and the White Queen… I’ve heard it, too. It’s a travesty of the prophecy of Ithlinne aep Aevenien, the elven seeress. I gave orders to catch one cleric who was going on about it in the Vengerberg market place and the torturer asked him politely and at length how much gold the prophet had received from Emhyr for doing it… But the preacher only prattled on about the White Flame and the White Queen… the same thing, to the very end.” -Blood of Elves
(thank you to @akilah12902 for sourcing this quote for me when I was looking for help!) This just reaffirms my thoughts that Fringilla and Francesca are arguing before a statue of Emhyr. A surprising amount of symbolism for this scene and show. Anyway. This was my main takeaway from 3x08. It was nice to be pleasantly surprised by this.

Jaskier holding Geralt’s hand again!!!
Poor Geralt though…
Yennefer in Skellige and Crach an Craite!
Tissaia still alive but with white hair?
Can’t stand Fringilla and Francesca….
Wtf is Vizimir doing?
Milva is funny, but how dare she say Jaskier isn’t Geralt’s friend?
Oh no, Tissaia is dead…
Why is Yennefer in Brokilon?
Look at that… Radovid again… are you going after Jaskier?
Fuck! Does that mean that Radovid becomes king now?
Yep! Long live king Radovid!
Wtf is Dara doing?
Jaskier, stop eating random stuff…
I hate the rats. Hated them in the books as well…
Nooo don’t tell me it ends like this… seriously I’m disappointed.
Last three episodes with Henry Cavill and we get what? 20 minutes of him? What a shame… I’m a little bit mad…
Netflix can’t help themselves can’t they? Always making stuff up…
Good luck with season 4, really. Hemsworth will never reach Cavill’s standards.
They were scheduled to begin filming on September 4th and guess what? Already postponed to 2024.
Said it is because of the strike but I believe there are other reasons.

The Witcher Season 3/4
I mean, at least I get now why they did not even consider ending the show after Henry Cavill announced he would leave, because then the show would not have had any kind of ending, because Episode 7 and 8 of Season 3 actually are Episode 1+2 of Season 4 and had no business being part of Season 3, therefore ending with that as an ending would have been worse than having an open ending.
And as much as I personally think Episode 7+8 actually are a return to form and a badly necessary improvement over the six episodes before them (which were mainly terrible), again: they should have ended this season after the events of 3x06.
This season proofed that the haters are right about one thing even though they are of course totally wrong about why it seems like this: You got the feeling that at least the Writer's Room of Season 3 has no idea how to write a television-series. Which is strange, because aren't most of those the same people who worked on the first two seasons? Other than in other cases where you get this feeling while watching a new season there was no showrunner-change or writer's room change behind the scenes happening before, so I honestly don't know why they did this season the way they did it. Because they could just have stretched the plot of the first six episodes over all eight episodes and then end on a mind-blowing Geralt is dying/Ciris is lost-Cliffhangar, instead they did this, which is just strange.
And also it did upset my future plans of pretending the show ended with Season 3, because after 3x08 I am actually interesting in pretty much every storyline and every remaining character again, even in those who were offputting to my enjoyment of Season 3 before.
But well, who knows maybe the strikes will manage to kill of Season 4 after all (however I think other than "Wednesday" "The Witcher" would be the last one of the Netflix-Show to go if push comes to shove). If it doesn't ... well this will be a very weird moment when Geralt will just be a totally different person the next moment we see him without any kind of timeskip or narrative pause before that.... But obviously they had no clue this would happen when they wrote this season that way.
