What Happened in Season 2?
The second season of 'The Witcher' was a huge success and held its position as the number-one TV show on the OTT platform for almost 2 consecutive weeks.
The story picks up right from where the first season ended. The battle of Sodden has concluded with Yennefer (Anya Chaltora) setting the forest ablaze and thus defeating the Nilfgaardian army.
Geralt of Rivia (Henry Cavil) unites with Princess Ciri (Freya Allan) and looks for Yennefer, who has perished in the battle according to Tissaia (MyAnna Buring) who is her mentor. Convinced that Yennefer lost her life, Geralt takes Ciri to the childhood home of witchers, Kaer Morhen which serves as a safe haven.
With the assistance of Geralt, sorceress Triss (Anna Shaffer) and Vesemir (Played by Kim Bodnia), Princess Ciri learns more about herself and the mysterious magical powers she possesses.
The character development, shaping of the story arc and the setting of the series make it an absolutely intriguing binge-worthy watch.
