![]() “Four Marks” returns to Yennefer and the woman who purchased her for such a pitiful sum, whose name, we learn, is Tissaia (MyAnna Buring). Geralt reluctantly allows Jaskier to accompany him, but when the bard refers to him as “The Butcher of Blaviken”, the unfortunate nickname he earned during the previous episode, Geralt socks him in the gut. (Jaskier translates to “buttercup”, which was deemed too feminine in the translations.) Jaskier is a bard in search of real adventures to make better songs and stories naturally, than, he’s attracted by Geralt (Henry Cavill), who is approached by a local to investigate the curious case of a devil stealing all their grain. The Witcher Episode 2 also introduces us to Jaskier (Joey Batey), interestingly referred to as such rather than his English moniker of Dandelion, which Western fans will be much more familiar with thanks to the games. Recognizing her new, thus far mute companion is cold, she gives him her gloves. These two bond over a cooked rat and Ciri explains that she’s running from someone with a big bird on his head. She cleverly dyes her silver hair with mud in the forest, though when she’s about to eat some of the local flora, she’s warned off by a mysterious young man who signs to her that they’re poisonous. Yennefer’s father is perfectly willing to part with her for the paltry sum of only four marks, which later drives Yennefer to suicide, holding a shard of broken glass over her wrist.Ĭiri (Freya Allen), meanwhile, is still on the run in “Four Marks”. And lo and behold, back on the farm, a well-to-do woman approaches Yennefer’s parents looking to purchase “the beast”. Istredd tells her that, if she opened the portal on her own, “she’ll” be coming for her. ![]() ![]() The deformed girl’s name is Yennefer (Anya Chalotra), though we don’t learn that until later. But you can’t judge a book by its cover, especially when the hunchback in question opens herself a magical portal - it takes her to the Tower of the Gull, at least according to Istredd (Royce Pierreson), the young man whom she encounters when she gets there. But not in The Witcher Episode 2, where the simple act of gifting a daisy results in the beatdown of the local deformed girl who picks it up. Young love, while almost always ending in tears, can nonetheless be a lovely thing.
