This article contains spoilers for The Witcher season 3.
Found family has been an important part of The Witcher’s story since Geralt (Henry Cavill) officially accepted Ciri (Freya Allan) as his “Child Surprise” at the end of season 1 and took her to Kaer Morhen to train in season 2, but season 3 is where this dynamic really shines. Not only does season 3 continue to feature Geralt growing into his role as a father-figure to Ciri, but the show also celebrates an alternative version of motherhood through Yennefer’s (Anya Chalotra) relationship with the young princess/Witcher-in-training.
In season 1, Yennefer made the choice to give up her ability to have biological children in order to receive the enchantments that many mages do to keep them looking young and beautiful for decades. After growing up bullied for her looks, she made this choice to finally attain the power and status that she had yearned for for so long.
