The Last Wish (Polish: Ostatnie życzenie) is the first book in Andrzej Sapkowski's Witcher series in terms of internal chronology, although the original Polish edition was published in 1993, after Sword of Destiny. Some of the individual short stories were first published in the Fantastyka magazine or in the Wiedźmin short story collection (the first collection of Sapkowski's stories, out of print and now obsolete; all short stories were later collected in The Last Wish, Sword of Destiny and Coś się kończy, coś się zaczyna) and as such were the first witcher stories published.

Text
  • "How indeed, Ser. A man's word is worth what you banner-hangin' folk want it to be worth... why not respect his wish and burn the thing."
  • "How can I refuse a dead man's last wish?"
  • "He was a good man, Lord Goran--but I want that map. How do we get it?"
  • These bickering kinfolk of Lord Goran are very busy dividing up the Lord's things now that he'll no longer be needing them.
  • "We shall honor Lord Goran's wishes and see the relic map destroyed."
  • "Ser, one of the men you once served as a knight, Lord Goran, is dead. His kinsmen found his old map, which Lord Goran wanted destroyed."
  • "I shall send a sworn sword to bring back that relic map, or die trying."
  • "I loved that old man, and I would see his wishes obeyed. But might they save that map?"
  • "I agree, Ser. It would do us well to see this map in the hands of those who could use it, rather than miss an opportunity to find treasure."
  • "Our sworn sword shall inform Lord Goran's kinsmen to do with the map as they will."
  • "We could easily get a sworn sword into Goran's keep and obtain the relic, while pretending to be there to instill fairness as the will is read."
