Who impregnated Pavetta?
For example, Duny was ignorant that he had impregnated Pavetta with his child until Geralt invoked the Law of Surprise, which is key to Geralt's right to the child. Had Duny been informed by Pavetta prior to that interaction, he'd still be in custody of the child.
The only problem with that was Princess Pavetta was unexpectedly pregnant with Duny's child. That meant another unborn child, the child who will grow up to be Princess Ciri, was owed to a stranger.
Pavetta ultimately figured out Duny's plans and arranged to leave Ciri behind with her grandmother, much to Duny's ire. The two then argued and she fell overboard and drowned.
Ciri is the daughter of Pavetta and Emhyr var Emreis, commonly known as Duny, the Urcheon of Erlenwald. Dunny, heir to the throne of Nilfgaard, traveled to Cintra under an alias as a young man, where he married Pavetta.
Emhyr started going by the name of Duny, met Pavetta, and fell in love, which also broke the curse. Sometime after Ciri's birth, he was visited by Vilgefortz who told him about the prophecy, and so Emhyr decided to return to Nilfgaard.
Finally accepting destiny this time, Calanthe then announced to the room that Pavetta would marry Duny while Calanthe would marry Eist that night, thereby still securing an alliance with Skellige.
The Emperor of Nilfgaard, aka the White Flame, was revealed to be Duny (Bart Edwards), Ciri's (Freya Allan) father, who was allegedly lost at sea with Ciri's mother when the princess was just a baby.
While still in Cintra, though he maintained the illusion of being simply Duny, when the chance came, he tried to take Pavetta and Cirilla with him to Nilfgaard, where he was the rightful heir to the throne.
Emhyr keeps his Duny identity a secret when he first returns to Nilfgaard, but in the show he does reveal his true connection with Ciri to Cahir and Fringilla during the season two finale.
They had sex and she got pregnant. Ciri is their daughter.
Who is Geralt's true love?
Geralt of Rivia
Emperor Emhyr var Emreis, Deithwen Addan yn Carn aep Morvudd, also known as Duny, is the main antagonist of the Witcher franchise. He was the emperor of Nilfgaard, the most powerful nation to ever exist in the human world.
In fact, Vilgefortz had been conspiring with Duny to bring both Pavetta and Ciri to Nilfgaard. Pavetta ultimately figured out Duny's plans and arranged to leave Ciri behind with her grandmother, much to Duny's ire. The two then argued and she fell overboard and drowned.
In an interview with Collider, she explained that she'd have no eyebrows left if she kept dying them for the show — especially if the plan is to make several more seasons. The actor went on to explain that some people on the street also mistook her for a Martian when she had blonde 'brows.
To cut a long story short, Ciri's grandmother, Queen Calanthe who dies during the Slaughter of Cintra, is descended from Elves which explains her anger when Ciri and Pavetta displayed their abilities due to the fear that they could reveal the controversial and dangerous truth about her families history.
Emhyr did want to marry his own daughter in the books, namely Blood of Elves. He'd sent bounty hunters to track her down. He wanted her not only because of her powers, but because she had elven blood and a prophecy had stated that producing a child, a son, with her would grant him the power to rule as he pleased.
Who is the love interest of Ciri? Ciri has a romantic relationship with an girl named Mistle while a member of the outlaw gang “The Rats”. We also see her express romantic interest in a knight named Ser Galahad in the final Witcher book Lady of the Lake.
Why does Ciri know that Emhyr is her father?? In the last Book where Geralt finds out that Emhyr=Duni(short before Geralt and Yennefer are told to suicide) Geralt agrees to not tell Ciri about that because it would destroy her psychologically. Remember, Emhyr wanted to marry and impregnate Ciri, his daughter.
It was none other than Duny (Bart Edwards), Princess Pavetta's (Gaia Mondadori) lover and a man who had been cursed to look like a monster. Yep, old hedgehog himself is none other than the White Flame. Having saved her father years earlier, Duny demanded Pavetta's hand in marriage and invoked the Law of Surprise.
Pavetta correctly assumes her husband's ulterior motives in the books and sneaks Ciri to safety in Cintra. On the boat, Emhyr learns the truth of what she did, and they fight. It leads to Pavetta falling overboard. In return, Emhyr travels back to Nilfgaard to resume his power.
Does Duny turn human?
Calanthe doesn't want to abide by this ancient rule, so she orders her men to kill Duny. That's where Geralt steps in to defend Duny and save his life. After a brief tussle, Calanthe agrees for Pavetta and Duny to be wed, and Duny turns back into a human.
Why did Emhyr turn evil? In books Emhyr's father was murdered and Emhyr himself was cursed into a monster by an usurper to take over Nilfgaardian throne. Emhyr married Pavetta, princess of Cintra what resulted in birth of Ciri. The curse was lifted thanks to Geralt of Rivia.
At a meeting, Geralt alone had discovered that Emhyr and Duny are merely two names for the same person.
Emperor Emhyr var Emreis, the White Flame, believes his child with Ciri is destined to save the world. As they see it, no sacrifice is too great to achieve their purpose.
Her refusal to accept Duny, due to the fact that he was firstly a knight with no credentials, and then secondly a knight cursed to look like a hedgehog, even going so far as to order him to be killed even after he claimed the Law of Surprise.
Ciri got her Elder Blood through her genetic heritage, as she's a long-lost descendent of Lara Dorren (Niamh McCormack), a powerful Elf sorceress.
Capturing Ciri
All he'd ever wanted was to fulfill her destiny. The White Flame had brought them together. She was the key to everything. As Cahir was fetching something to eat, he was confronted by the Adonis, who had taken on his appearance and in doing so, discovered what Ciri truly was.
The Deathless Mother offers gifts in exchange for obedience or favors, but what does she want? The answer is almost too easy. She only wants to return to the otherworldly plane that she came from in the first place. Although it hasn't been completely revealed yet, this is why she's after Ciri.
She sent Yen hunting for Ciri because she knew of her power to break monoliths and teleport between realms—basically, Ciri's power was the only way she knew to get home.
Things like “Ciri doesn't even consider Yennefer to be her mother”, “Yen uses her relationship with Geralt to get to Ciri and pretends she finally has a child”, “All Yen cares about is Ciri's powers and heritage”.
Can Yennefer have babies?
In fact, in the novels (and in the show) both Yennefer and Geralt are incapable of having biological children. For Geralt, the show affords him a wide landscape of emotions — his story isn't pegged to his ability to father children.
Geralt makes an offhand remark about claiming the Law of Surprise in exchange for saving Duny from execution at the wedding, and Pavetta immediately throws up, implying that she is already pregnant with a "child of surprise" whose fate is now inexorably linked with that of Geralt.
Other than their short-lived fertility, their overall biology makes it impossible for them to sustain successful childbirth. This is why the birth of Francesca's baby was a monumental event for the elves.
9 YENNEFER'S ATROCITY: Cheating On Geralt
For starters, there are multiple instances in the story where Yennefer has slept with people behind Geralt's back, causing the witcher no end of grief when he found out.
Sadly, Yennefer was left fuming and believed she didn't love Geralt and it was simply the djinn's magic which was behind it. Yennefer is said to be Geralt's true love, so it would suggest their feelings are genuine. Saying this, their romance will be a tumultuous one throughout The Witcher stories.
Istredd was a sorcerer who was romantically involved with Yennefer during their time at Aretuza.
Only watch from afar. But destiny intervened and they fell in love. Queen Calanthe seemed to accept destiny, handing over her sword and extending her hand to Duny. She pulled him close, whispered "here is your destiny," and then pulled out a knife and aimed it at his throat.
Pavetta and Duny kissed, and he transformed back into his human form. Queen Calanthe's blessing of their marriage lifted the curse and fulfilled destiny.
Duny intended to reclaim his birthright as the Emperor of Nilfgaard. Because he knew that Calanthe would interfere, he tried to fake his, Pavetta, and Ciri's deaths. Pavetta found out about his plans, and smuggled Cirilla back to Cintra. When Duny discovered what Pavetta had done, he murdered her.
Geralt unknowingly names Ciri as his reward a second time when he saves the life of Yurga, for while the man was away, his wife took in the orphan girl. Geralt himself is a victim of the Law of Surprise. It was because of the Law of Surprise that Geralt was taken in as a Witcher.
What was Geralt's last wish?
Geralt wished to die alongside Yennefer. Since a djinn can't kill its own master, this wish would provide a nice loophole that would save Yennefer's life and also ensure that Geralt and Yennefer's lives are bound together until their very ends.
Ciri is at the center of The Witcher now because she is such a valuable person and has the ability to control the fates of so many characters, including Geralt and Yennefer, who ultimately become her surrogate parents through their care and training.
Ciri has Elder Blood because a certain elven sorceress named Lara Dorren fell in love with a human mage named Cregennan of Lod. Their daughter, later adopted by Cerro, the queen of Redania, was named Riannon. Ciri is the descendant of Riannon. Ciri's Elder Blood is another reason the King of the Wild Hunt is after her.
Ciri's white hair is a result of genetics. Both her mother and grandmother have white(silver) hair, explicitly described in the books.
It's obvious Henry Cavill is wearing contacts but Yennefer's eyes look like they were changed in post-production. just sent me this article. Anya Chalotra couldn't wear the contacts because she has problems with them.
Yennefer is one quarter elven since her mother was a half-blood elf. Yennefer has a congenital hunchback, a rare birth defect. Because of her condition, her childhood was difficult. She suffered abuse and was even ridiculed by her parents.
As Yennefer explains to Istredd, her biological father was a half-elf. This elvish heritage was responsible for her deformities, but also for her natural familiarity with magic.
What Is Elder Blood? Lara Dorren was a special Eleven sorceress who carried Hen Ichaer, which is more commonly referred to as Elder Blood - and it didn't die with her, as it was passed on to her descendants.
Geralt makes an offhand remark about claiming the Law of Surprise in exchange for saving Duny from execution at the wedding, and Pavetta immediately throws up, implying that she is already pregnant with a "child of surprise" whose fate is now inexorably linked with that of Geralt.
The timeline of The Witcher can be tricky to follow, so it's worth noting that Pavetta's daughter Princess Ciri (Freya Allan) isn't alive at this point and Geralt of Rivia (Henry Cavill) is a smidge less embittered by a world that considers him a mutant and doesn't even pay him even when he gets the job done.
Who is Ciri father Emhyr or Duny?
This moment marks the first time the character's face has appeared onscreen, and it has been hidden up until this point for a good reason: Emhyr is revealed to be Ciri's father, Duny (Bart Edwards), the former hedgehog man turned prince of Cintra who has been presumed dead for years.
Pavetta Fiona Elen was the granddaughter of Queen Adalia and daughter of Queen Calanthe and King Roegner of Ebbing.
As a result, the law sometimes results in an unborn child being served up as payment, because the father didn't know his wife/lover/mistress was pregnant — this is a child surprise, like Ciri.
Ciri got her Elder Blood through her genetic heritage, as she's a long-lost descendent of Lara Dorren (Niamh McCormack), a powerful Elf sorceress.
After Pavetta confirmed her wish to be with him, an uproar erupted. In the ensuing fight, Geralt saved Duny's life, and later, because of this Duny promised to give up his own child to be trained as a witcher.
Emperor Emhyr var Emreis, Deithwen Addan yn Carn aep Morvudd, also known as Duny, is the main antagonist of the Witcher franchise. He was the emperor of Nilfgaard, the most powerful nation to ever exist in the human world.
You see, Emhyr wasn't trying to find Ciri because he missed his daughter or even because he wanted to legitimize his claim to the Cintran throne. The real reason he wanted Ciri is because he wanted to marry and impregnate her.
Why did Emhyr turn evil? In books Emhyr's father was murdered and Emhyr himself was cursed into a monster by an usurper to take over Nilfgaardian throne. Emhyr married Pavetta, princess of Cintra what resulted in birth of Ciri. The curse was lifted thanks to Geralt of Rivia.
As Yennefer explains to Istredd, her biological father was a half-elf. This elvish heritage was responsible for her deformities, but also for her natural familiarity with magic.
