The Kaer Morhen theme plays in the distance
Nah, I’m kidding, it’s actually Drink Up, There’s More, because that’s the only tune my last brain cell plays on it’s tin whistle

Based on the post I made a while ago:

I feel like Regis is just silly fella. Also higher vampires love shiny things like their lesser cousins and you can fascinate a higher vampire with a piece of jewelry
(I chose yarrow (common yarrow) beacause It grows everywhere here and in Polish the name is krwawnik and it relates to blood (krew- blood) haha funny.)

"I don't know,'"she whispered. "But we're going the wrong way, Geralt." They went around an overgrown bend, and it turned out Ciri had been right.
-Sword of Destiny by Andrzej Sapkowski.
Personal piece illustrating one of my favorite sequences from the Witcher book series. Made from memory so some of the details may be incorrect, but hopefully I captured the essence of the encounter.
"A Bad Road" oil on paper, approx. 8 x 10"

“Everyone has some kind of debt. Such is life. Debts and liabilities, obligations, gratitude, payments, doing something for someone. Or perhaps for ourselves? For in fact we are always paying ourselves back and not someone else. Each time we are indebted we pay off the debt to ourselves. In each of us lies a creditor and a debtor at once and the art is for the reckoning to tally inside us. We enter the world as a minute part of the life we are given, and from then on we are ever paying off debts, To ourselves. For ourselves. In order for the final reckoning to tally.”

The fish soup scene in Baptism of Fire changed me. What if friendship was real and the gang of misfits who by all rights should want you dead instead lovingly worked together, playing up each other's unique strengths to make you fish soup you could share as a family while telling you to sit your ass down, shut the fuck up, and behave. What if that's what love is all about. I am typing this through tears

Men enjoyers' reactions be like:
I'm so glad our fandom agrees on one thing. I would also like to add that I also respect the lore in the aspect of Regis' early lack of rizzing skills - so he's cute and all, but can't talk for shit.

Andrzej Sapkowski: "Personally, I like the Netflix series a lot"
youtube
Minute 8:13-8:17 ("persönlich da habe ich die Netflix Serie sehr gern")
He also says something about the Slavic influence: "When you say that in the Geralt Saga many things and matters are inspired by Slavic mythology, that's true, but not only, not only." (He really emphasises this!) ("Wenn Sie sagen, dass in Geralt Saga viele Sachen und Angelegenheiten inspiriert von Slawischer Mythologie inspiriert sind, das stimmt, aber nicht nur, nicht nur. Also keine Mythologie ist für mich schlecht zu bearbeiten.") (3:12-3:30)
When he is asked if he was influenced by Tolkien, he says yes, that he is a specialist at fantasy and has read everything and that his goal was to avoid all the cliche/sterotypes that you find in fantasy and to find his own way. ("Mein Ziel war, alle Klischees die im Fantasy sind, zu vermeiden, also finden meinen eigenen Weg." (6:39-6:55)
So, all in all, Netflix not just copying the exclusively white elves from Tolkien's world seems to be compliant with the author of the Witcher books's ideas. Maybe there could have been more Slavic elements, but that the Witcher is pretty much exclusively inspired by Slavic mythology like some people claim on social media is not true, according to the author (he especially mentions the Brothers Grimm as influences, for example). And that every fan of the books must automatically hate the show is definitely bullshit, if even the author himself likes it.
Take that, haters 😉

Yennefer saying, "Tell me this isn't the last time I'll see you. Say it." hits so differently, knowing that this is Henry's last appearance as Geralt of Rivia 😭.
I cannot!!!
