Four Marks [The Witcher S1E2]

Discussion of The Witcher, Season 1, Episode 2: “Four Marks” This episode is a strange cocktail - 3 parts Yennefer, 2 parts Ciri, and maybe just a salted rim of Geralt. We celebrate the great introductions of Yen and Dandelion before diving into the decidedly rocky writing of Ciri's plotline and the extreme abbreviation of Geralt's adventure with the Sylvan. We also discuss the obligations and pressures of adaptation, the incomparable depth and subtlety of Sapkowski's dialogue, and why we still have hope for this version of The Witcher!
