The Witcher season 2 spoilers: When do Geralt and Yennefer meet again?
By Sabrina Reed
Spoilers ahead of The Witcher season 2
It seems to be Geralt and Yennefer’s lot in The Witcher to be constantly separated in the series with exception to brief instances where their chemistry is allowed to sizzle on-screen. Season 2, unfortunately, keeps the two apart for quite awhile.
When The Witcher season 2 opens, Geralt is looking for Yennefer. He’s fulfilled part of his destiny and finally has Ciri under his protection, but his desire to bring his lost love into the fold as well is thwarted by a misconception.
After the great battle in the season 1 finale where the sorceress unleashed fire magic upon Nilfgaard’s fighting forces, her comrades believed her to be dead. In fairness, they couldn’t find her on the battle field and fire-based chaos magic not only is unpredictable, it’s also forbidden.
They’d been under the assumption that she’d sacrificed her life to swing the battle into their favor. However, Yennefer had actually been captured by Fringilla and then by elves before she could make her way back to Aretuza.
By the time she and Geralt cross paths again, Yennefer is a fugitive in dire straits.
When do Geralt and Yennefer meet again in The Witcher season 2?
You’ll be waiting until episode 6 “Dear Friend…” to see the two reunited. While we won’t give away how they meet, it’s a surprise for at least one of them. Their reunion will also test their relationship as there’s a secret that Yennefer is keeping from Geralt and it has to do with Ciri.
Will the two come to some kind of understanding before the season ends? You’ll have to watch The Witcher season 2 to find out but showrunner Lauren Schmidt Hissrich did tell The Wrap the following about her feelings on the trio:
"When I talk about The Witcher, I always talk about how these three characters coming together — Geralt, Ciri and Yennefer — they come together as a family. It’s the most important part of the series for me."
So, however things go, that’s the point the show is trying to reach with this soon-to-be found family.
