Revamping Celtfather Podcast, Redoing Pub Songs & Stories Mikey: Mason+Vaughn Project PLOT SYNOPSIS & DISCUSSION (Ripped straight from Wikipedia) MIKEY - So, the thing about the Witcher series, especially in Season One, is that there are several potentially confusing time jumps that have to be tracked. To understand the full scope of these jumps and the impact they have on the story, it’s almost necessary to have watched the entire Season. In spite of this, we’ll do our best. This synopsis is heavily pulled from Wikipedia, and slightly modified, but absolutely doesn’t cover everything that happened in the episode. MARC - In the year 1240, having served the kingdom of Aedirn for thirty years, Yennefer, along with Queen Kalis of Lyria, is ambushed by an assassin. In the ensuing chase, Yennefer flees, unable to save Kalis and her newborn daughter from the assassin. MIKEY - Then, in 1249, Geralt accompanies Jaskier to the betrothal feast of Princess Pavetta, Queen Calanthe's of Cintra’s daughter. Urcheon of Erlenwald (also named Duny) interrupts to demand Pavetta's hand through the Law of Surprise, having saved her father's life several years earlier. MARC - The Law of Surprise is an ancient law inspired by European folklore, requiring that someone who is saved by someone else should offer them a boon, the nature of which is often unknown to both parties. For instance, the savior might ask for “the first thing that comes to greet you when you return home,” or “what you find at home yet don’t expect.” MIKEY - Urcheon suffers from a curse that transformed him into a humanoid hedgehog creature. Despite Pavetta's acceptance of the betrothal, Calanthe refuses and a brawl ensues. When Calanthe tries killing Urcheon, Pavetta activates her power, unleashing a maelstrom until Geralt and Mousesack (the druid/mage who serves Calanthe) intervene. MARC - Wanting her daughter happy, Calanthe marries Duny and Pavetta, which lifts his curse. Duny, thankful for Geralt's aid, insists he take a reward. Geralt jokingly invokes the Law of Surprise for something Duny has but does not yet know. The crowd then immediately learns Pavetta is pregnant with Duny’s child. They’d been in love for some time. MIKEY - In 1263, Nilfgaard's forces resume their pursuit of Cirilla (aka Ciri), Pavetta's daughter, with Mousesack as their prisoner. Meanwhile, Cirilla and Dara encounter the dryad queen Eithne in Brokilon Forest, while Cahir and Fringilla track Ciri's location.
