| - The girl is being protected by Geralt of Rivia, a witcher - a magically and genetically mutated monster slayer for hire, who takes her to the witchers' keep - Kaer Morhen. There Ciri is being taught by other witchers, including old Vesemir, Coën, Eskel and Lambert. She learns about monsters and how to fight them. She is taught to fight with a sword in the witcher style. But during her "education", the sorceress Triss Merigold comes to Kaer Morhen. She is called by Geralt to help with occasional strange and abnormal behavior he has seen in Ciri. Triss realises that Ciri is a person with powerful magical abilities, known as a Source. At the same time, a mysterious wizard called Rience is looking for the girl. He is a servant of a more powerful mage, who remains unknown. He captures Geralt's friend, Dandelion the bard, and tortures him for information about Ciri, but another sorceress - Yennefer - helps Dandelion and injures Rience in the process, leaving him scarred and easier to identify. In the spring, Geralt leaves Kaer Morhen with Triss and Ciri, intending to deliver Ciri to the Temple School in Ellander where she would receive a "normal" education from Nenneke. On the way, Triss falls ill, and they shelter with Yarpen Zigrin's dwarven company guarding a caravan. Geralt shows Ciri the roses of Aelirenn, who died leading the elven young to fight the humans. The caravan is attacked by the Scoia'tael, and Ciri experiences the horror of war for a second time. [Incomplete]
