THE WITCHER: BLOOD ORIGIN, a prequel to The Witcher series, tells the story of a group of elves who unite against a powerful empire and the creation of the first Witcher. Twelve hundred years before Geralt of Rivia hunted monsters, elite elf warrior Éile (Sophia Brown), an outcast from the Raven Clan, left her life as a blade warrior for that of a bard known as the Lark. Unexpected events lead to the crossing of paths with Fjall (Laurence O'Fuarain), an outcast from the Dog Clan. Meanwhile, in the capital city of Xin'trea, sorcerer Balor (Lenny Henry) and Princess Merwyn (Mirren Mack) are each seeking ways to become powerful rulers of the Golden Empire. Éile and Fjall decide to make their way to the capital to slay Merwyn and anyone else responsible for the turmoil they have caused. As thy journey forward they recruit master blade sword fighter Scían (Michelle Yeoh), fighter Meldof (Francesca Mills), and Callan (Huw Novelli), also known as Brother Death. Magical twins Syndril (Zach Wyatt) and Zacaré (Lizzie Ennis) eventually become part of the group of rebels. But the worlds of elves, men, and monsters are beginning to come together, leading to what is later known as the great Conjunction of the Spheres, and the changing of the elven world forever.
