Before she can deal the final blow, Tetra is killed by a dying Deglan who asks Vesemir to find the children and make them into 'better men' before succumbing to his wounds. Tetra attacks Vesemir from behind, and she reveals she is the daughter of the sorceress killed by the swindling witcher (implied to be Vesemir), explaining her hatred for their kind. He kills Tetra and stabs Kitsu, only for it to be revealed as an other illusion, and he had killed a mage and stabbed Illyana instead. However, Vesemir is able to break out of the illusion and engages in a fierce battle with Tetra and her forces. Kitsu arrives and plunges Vesemir into an illusion where he married Illyana and had a family. Deglan, seeing the folly in his actions, tries to hold off the horde while Vesemir confronts Tetra, who has captured the mages and is holding them hostage in the basement. Illyana helps the recruits flee Kaer Morhen while the witchers defend their home.ДЄlthough they put up a good fight, the witchers are massacred due to the sheer number of enemies. Tetra, who had lied to Kitsu about the destruction of her den and the disappearance of the hybrid girl, uses her control over the monsters to aid the townsfolk of Ard Carraigh into wiping out the witchers. Before it can escalate further, they are alerted by Illyana of Tetra's assault. Back to the court, she convinces the king of the witchers responsibility in the recent monsters attacks and is given authorisation to lay siege to Kaer Morhen, while Lady Zerbst's plea fails to stop Luka's execution.Дeglan admits to Vesemir to creating the monsters, to sustain their work and their way of life, and they both fight. As he departs, Tetra destroys Kitsu's den and goes to find her. Vesemir surmises that the monsters he encountered were probably created in Kaer Morhen and leaves to confront his mentor, master witcher Deglan. He then leaves the premises with a surviving hybrid young elven girl, swearing that if she ever harms anyone, he'll call for Vesemir's sword. They rescue the captured Filavandrel, who explains that Kitsu tried to replicate the experiments that was done on her, and they come to the conclusion that witchers were responsible, creating new monsters to palliate their declining numbers. They kill the monster, but Kitsu flees further into the forest.ДЇollowing Kitsu, the pair come across an old and abandoned elven school where they find the bodies of the other missing female elves. They find the girl, who can now cast powerful illusions due to a mutation, and fight her basilisk. Vesemir and Tetra travel the forest in search of Kitsu, and she tells him the story of a young sorceress wrongfully killed by a witcher as part of a con, and that she is convinced that all witchers are 'corrupted'. She personally delivers the mission order to Vesemir and reveals herself as a much older Illyana, contrasting with the young-looking Vesemir, who ages slowly due to his alterations. Tetra implores the king to execute the imprisoned witchers, but Lady Zerbst persuades the king to instead send Vesemir along with Tetra to rid the forest of Kitsu. Later he, and another fellow witcher, Luka, are arrested for killing two knights who had insulted them in a tavern. Vesemir visits Kaer Morhen where he reluctantly oversees the training of new children recruits. Meanwhile, a sorceress, Tetra Gilcrest of the Kaedwen Court, tries to convince the king to wipe out the witchers of Kaer Morhen, but her attempts are unsuccessful due to the efforts of Lady Zerbst, a royal councillor who is sympathetic to the witchers and their cause. He asks the witcher to help him investigate, but Vesemir refuses.

In the present, Vesemir is visited by the elf Filavandrel, who thinks the leshen was controlled by Kitsu, an elven girl who went missing and was followed by numerous others. Enticed by promises of coin and riches, Vesemir left Illyana and traveled to Kaer Morhen, and after years of brutal training and body-altering experiments, he became a successful witcher, notorious for his skills and arrogance. A witcher named Deglan deduced that the woman was possessed by a Mare and successfully exorcised the monster with Vesemir's help. Vesemir reminisces about his youth when he, along with his best friend Illyana, were servants for a noble whose mistress had suddenly fallen ill. Before dying, the creature says something in an archaic elven dialect to Vesemir, leading him to think it was controlled by someone. The story begins with Vesemir saving a noble child from a leshen in a forest in Kaedwen.
