The Wizards Guild has been shattered by a coup and, in the uproar, Geralt was seriously injured. The Witcher is supposed to be a guardian of the innocent, a protector of those in need, a defender against powerful and dangerous monsters that prey on men in dark times.

 

But now that dark times have fallen upon the world, Geralt is helpless until he has recovered from his injuries.

 

While war rages across all of the lands, the future of magic is under threat and those sorcerers who survive are determined to protect it. It's an impossible situation in which to find one girl - Ciri, the heiress to the throne of Cintra, has vanished - until a rumor places her in the Niflgaard court, preparing to marry the Emperor.

 

火帶來生命，也能奪走生命。

火能淨化我們，也能鍛鍊我們，所以必須穿火而過。

 

塔奈島上的血腥叛變粉碎了巫師陣營，

諸王不再信任魔法，巫師失去政治影響力，

面對此一困局，新的組織——「女巫會」應運而生；

神話、傳說還有預言，意外拼湊出「上古之血」的真相，

史上最頂尖的女巫群集，將改變歷史軌跡……

 

傳言流亡公主將被推上帝后寶座，成為帝王開國的祭品，

明知是陷阱，負傷的獵魔士仍堅持深入敵陣，展開不可能的救援行動，

與他一同踏上旅程的，還有吟遊詩人亞斯克爾、剽悍的弓箭手米爾娃、

粗野海派的矮人團隊、總在惡夢中糾纏奇莉的帝國黑衣騎士，

以及來歷成謎、彷彿全知全能的藥草師；

他們有各自的債要還、有自己的罪要贖，因而加入這趟跨越大陸的遠征，

沒有人想到的是，這是一趟必須穿越火與血的旅程，

等在他們眼前的，更不止有戰爭的血腥殘酷……
