Suggested by thecookieprincess
Geralt has been having the same nightmare for some time-Yennefer and Ciri are fleeing through a dark and dense forest. It doesn't look like Brokilon. Both of them are quite helpless, terrified, and their eyes are dripping with tears that with time turn into blood. On top of that a mysterious man is chasing them. When Yen and Ciri hit a dead end, the man stabs them both through and through with his sword. One night in a dream, the killer's face finally appears. It is not Vilgefortz, Leo Bonhart, or anyone else Geralt knows, but...himself. He is then awakened by the screams of Yennefer and Ciri, but they are asleep. When he is on a walk with his beloved and his daughter he starts to feel hatred towards them. He draws his sword and cuts off Yennefer's hand as she tries to defend herself and Ciri. Panicked, they flee into a nearby forest. The Witcher finally catches up with them and kills them. When he regains consciousness over the bodies, Vesemir and Triss Merigold find him and demand an explanation. Yen, Ciri and Geralt's eyes begin to well up with blood. Triss then remembers the blood sorcerer-Villads of Angren, who hates the sorceresses of the Lodge. Geralt decides to avenge the deaths of Yen and Ciri. Meanwhile, sorceress and lover of Villads-Fayette spread the news across the continent that Geralt had deliberately killed the sorceress and Ciri. An enraged Pavetta - Ciri's mother - puts a bounty on his head.
