Both the experienced detective, Mr Lestrade, and consulting expert, Mr Sherlock Holmes, have concluded that this horrible series of events is the work of a MADMAN, not a common criminal. No other explanation makes sense.

I am perfectly willing to act as business manager for the Franco-Midland Hardware Company, Limited, at a minimum salary of £500 – Mr Hall Pycroft.

For more than a hundred years humans, dwarves, gnomes and elves lived together in relative peace. But times have changed, the uneasy peace is over and now the races once again fight each other - and themselves: Dwarves are killing their kinsmen, and elves are murdering humans and elves, at least those elves who are friendly to humans... Into this tumultuous time is born a child for whom the witchers of the world have been waiting. Ciri, the granddaughter of Queen Calanthe, the Lioness of Cintra, has strange powers and a stranger destiny, for prophecy names her the Flame, one with the power to change the world - for good, or for evil... Geralt, the witcher of Rivia, has taken Ciri to the relative safety of the Witchers' Settlement, but it soon becomes clear that Ciri isn't like the other witchers. As the political situation grows ever dimmer and the threat of war hangs almost palpably over the land, Geralt searches for someone to train Ciri's unique powers. But someone else has an eye on the young girl, someone who understand exactly what the prophecy means - and exactly what Ciri's power can do. This time Geralt may have met his match.

After decades of oppression, the elves and other races are fighting each other and attacking the humans in ever-growing numbers. The kings and armies fear invasion from across the river - but fear their neighbours more. Dissent and intrigue fester in this time of contempt. As Ciri learns to control her magic, Geralt and Yennefer must protect the orphaned heir who is sought by all sides. For the child of prophecy has the power to change the world - if she lives to use it.

لم نكن نطلب الكثير؛ فقط أن نشعر أننا على ما يرام، وأننا جيدون بما يكفي، ونستحق الحب هكذا تمامًا كما نحن.. دون أن نحتاج أن نقتلع جلودنا كل صباحٍ ونرتدي غيرها لنرضيهم! والآن نتحسس ندوب الإساءات القديمة تلك التي نواريها ولم تزل تؤثر على سلوكنا، فتمنحنا الغربة والشك في ذواتنا. هي جراحات لم تأخذ حقها من الالتئام، فكتمنا آلامها مبكرًا وارتدينا قناع القوة مدعين أننا بخير. حتى جاء ميقات الحرية وسلكنا طريق التعافي، وارتحلنا على مسارات الشفاء، وعلمنا أن في آخر نفق الألم المظلم نورًا.
