When Geralt met the two princesses of Cintra again, the first war between the Nilfgaard Empire and the northern kingdoms was almost over.
This is how Nilfgaard records the war -
"The reason why this battle broke out is all the responsibility of Temeria's special forces. The intercepted documents clearly indicate that Temeria intends to seize Cintra. The empire will never allow this power imbalance to happen. Redeploy military strength By going to Sintra and establishing order there, the Empire can reverse Temeria's destructive actions and maintain peace. Unfortunately, the northern countries are as stubborn and short-sighted as ever, choosing armed conflict instead of rational compromise.
During this conflict, the northern army committed an unforgivable crime, and retribution first came in the Battle of Manada and the Sintra Incident. Our great Majesty, Emhyr Emreis, wrote to the court of Cintra to express his sympathy and hope that this nightmare would not happen again.
After capturing Cintra, the Nilfgaardian army believed that the situation in the north had stabilized, but the north continued to resist, resulting in a battle between the two armies near Soden. Northerners boasted that this battle was a turning point in the entire war, but in fact it had no political significance at all. An armistice was signed soon after, and Cintra became a territory of the Nilfgaardian Empire. "
Interestingly, northern scholars have another theory -
"The reason for the war was Nilfgaard's obvious intention to invade Cintra. The Imperial Army crossed the Amer Mountains and attacked the garrison station on the southern border of Cintra and near the Ihrenwald Forest. There are some unconfirmed rumors It is stated that Emhyr Emreis had a special connection to this place, but the details are unknown. What we do know for sure is that he long ago made up his mind to control Cintra.
The key battle was the Battle of Manada, in which Nilfgaard surrounded and destroyed Cintra's army. King Ister Tursek was killed in the battle. The survivors, led by Queen Calanthe, sought refuge in the capital, but there was no one there because the entire city had been massacred, and the whereabouts of Queen Calanthe and the royal princess were also unknown.
The battle then moved to the Obersowden area, and the fighting was horrific, barbaric and cruel. Historically, it is unanimously believed that the brutal crimes committed by the Imperial Army in Upper Sowden contributed to the North's victory in the Second Battle of Sowden. These brutal acts left the Northern Army with only two choices: win the war, or die with their families. . Their desperate determination allowed them to defeat the seemingly unbeatable Nilfgaardian army. The following year, the two sides signed an armistice and ceded Cintra to the Empire, thus making Cintra nominally the northernmost province of Nilfgaard. "
…
After Geralt learned that the "Cintra Massacre" had occurred, he immediately set out to find Cirlia, and of course Olivia, who he liked even more. Among them, Cirilla was more of a responsibility. Olivia, on the other hand, was special. He had a very deep impression on the little princess of Sintra.
The result was that the emperor paid off, or the "Law of Accident" was so powerful. This time, Geralt no longer hesitated and chose to take Siliya and Olivia to Kaer Morhen.
Geralt actually felt very guilty in his heart. Perhaps he should have taken away the sisters when they were in Brokilon Forest. Otherwise, why would they have to suffer such a crime
Of course, Cilia would not tell Geralt how cruel she and her sister had been on the run for almost a whole year. In fact, as long as her sister was there, she could endure any hardship...
Xilia's sister's aura is getting stronger and stronger. In order to protect her sister, she has become more and more "ruthless and taciturn", and she also desires more powerful power, so she would rather follow her than become the daughter of a businessman. Geralt hopes to learn powerful sword skills from the legendary witcher so that he can better protect his sister.
But Olivia, who knows very well that "crybabies get milk", told Geralt and his friend Dandelion in detail about her experience with Cirya, and exaggerated it based on the facts. It makes those who hear it sad and those who hear it cry!
Dandelion patted his chest and expressed his intention to write two epic masterpieces based on the experiences of Olivia and Cilia - "The Pearl of the North" and "The Young Lion of Sintra".
Dandelion is a gifted poet, bard, a graduate of Oxenfurt Academy, a frequent performer at the Royal Palace, an unparalleled love player, a playboy admired by ladies all over the continent, and a skilled A negotiator and an eloquent speaker, these are the common images of Dandelion in the stories told by everyone.
One of Geralt's closest companions, he is a chattering fellow, a funny clown, and a slob. But as long as he wants, he can immediately become a graceful upper-class aristocrat, but his passion and romance often get him into trouble, which also makes the white wolf wipe his ass again and again.
When Dandelion saw Her Royal Highness Princess Olivia, the "Pearl of the North" who was extremely famous and even more beautiful, he flirted with her out of habit, seemingly not caring at all that she was only thirteen years old.
In fact, because she is of Western race, this thirteen-year-old girl is actually already graceful, and Olivia, who has gone through hardships, is even more charming.
However, Dandelion was warned by Geralt that night. He can flirt with any girl, but don't set your sights on his daughters!
That's right, Geralt has made up his mind to adopt the two sisters, who have become princesses of the country and whose parents have died, as his adopted daughters and take them to Kaer Morhen.
Dandelion, Geralt's good friend, is quite obedient. He said that he really doesn't have any excessive thoughts about Olivia, he just thinks that the princess is more interesting...
As for Xilia, her whole body exudes the aura of keeping strangers away from her. She only smiles when facing her sister.
After Geralt listened to Olivia's confession, of course he felt very sorry for his two daughters. Then the white wolf seemed to turn into a loyal dog. In other words, Geralt was born to be a father. On the way to Kaer Morhen , who takes great care of the two sisters, it can be said that a father's love is as strong as a mountain.
Geralt, who is destined to be infertile, obviously regards the two sisters as his biological daughters. Perhaps many years later, when he dreams, he will still think of how he got along with the two sisters when they were young. That may be a game. The content of the novice tutorial is over.
Princess Olivia seems to be quite skilled at "recognizing her father". While Siliya remained aloof, Olivia, who originally called Geralt "Old White Wolf", had already called him "White Wolf". "Wolf Father", although this father is indeed old enough to be her grandfather's father...
