But all is not as it appears during the evening of gossip, spiked drinks, revelry and revelation. Geralt tries very hard to socialise and avoid the revelling sorcerers. His patience is pushed by Dijkstra, Phillipa and Stregabour during the evening and Yennefer has to remind him they need to lie low in order to expose Stregobor as the dark mage during the conclave the following day. However, their plans change when Yennefer is alerted by Istredd and Triss about Stregobor's possession of the Book of Monoliths. Geralt and Istredd pretend a fight to cover for Yennefer as she breaks into Stregobor's study where they discover the book, as well as apparent evidence of kidnapping half-elven students. Stregobor is arrested in his study by Tissaia, Vilgefortz and Artorius, and the banquet is deemed a diplomatic success. Once Yennefer and Geralt put all the pieces of the night together, however, they realise the mastermind behind Rience's actions and the kidnappings is Vilgefortz who only framed Stregobor. Scouting the halls to find Vilgefortz, Geralt is distracted by sounds of a distant fight and is ambushed at knife-point by Dijkstra, as he enacts his plan to purge the Brotherhood of Sorcerers.Episode 6 - Everyone has a plan 'Til They Get Punched In The Face Written by Javier Grillo-MarxuachDirected again by Loni PeristereSynopsis: With Geralt taken prisoner, bloodshed and betrayal, rocks Aretuza, as the Redanian soldiers led by Dijkstra and Philippa, along with several Northern mages, strike a coup to arrest mages led by Vilgefortz who collaborated with Nilfgaard. Not believing the accusations levelled at her lover, Tissaia frees the apprehended mages and Vilgefortz, where he reveals his conniving, plotting and betrayal to Tissaia as he lets in an invading force of elven Scoia'tael led by Cahir and Queen Francesca to reclaim Aretuza. The hunt for Ciri comes to a head as Vilgefortz, the elves,and the Redanians all seek to find Ciri for their own purposes. A bloody battle erupts between the league of Nilfgaardian and Scoia'tael forces and the Northern mages, as many are killed on both sides including Filavandrel and Artorius. Elsewhere, Geralt, Ciri, and Yennefer are briefly reunited trying to get Ciri to safety. But after surviving an attack by Rience who is killed and decapitated by Geralt’s sword, Yennefer must go to help her Aretuzian brothers and sisters. Yennifer joins her weakened mentor Tissaia at the battle, after she has cast a devastating spell of last resort leaving Aretuza ruined. While the last few mages are saved by Stregobor who sacrifices himself using fire magic to stop the remaining forces from finishing them off .Meanwhile Geralt and Ciri are confronted by Cahir, who has an epiphany realising he has been used and lied to for long enough, asking for forgiveness from Ciri he pledges to defend her as he fights off Scoia'tael hunting Ciri and Geralt. As they both make their way to the shore to escape by boat something feels wrong and Geralt commands Ciri to run. She runs back towards Aretuza and the tower of Tor Lara, as Vilgefortz confronts Geralt. The dark mage shows expert combat prowess and defeats Geralt allowing him to pursue Ciri.
