The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - Part Sixteen | “Closer than ever, only to be cast back into shadow…”

I thought I was close Ciri had contacted Dandelion here in Novigrad. That led me to the Rosemary and Thyme, Dandelion’s new place, though of course it reeked of chaos more than charm. But the bard himself? Nowhere to be found.

Zoltan was there at least, returned from the road and as helpful as ever. We turned the place upside down and found a planner filled with women’s names, typical. Still, a lead’s a lead.

Each woman had fond tales but no real answers. One name stood out Priscilla, a talented trobairitz still performing in town. I went to the Kingfisher expecting a simple talk. I got a ballad... and a warning.

Turns out Dandelion’s mixed up with Whoreson Junior and planning to rob Sigismund Dijkstra. That idiot dove into Novigrad’s deepest pit and called it a bathhouse.

Now it’s up to me to pull him out before it swallows him whole.

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is the groundbreaking installment in CD PROJEKT RED’s acclaimed series following the legendary witcher, Geralt of Rivia. After multiple delays, the game was officially released on May 19, 2015, and made an immediate impact. Selling over 4 million copies in just two weeks, more than doubling the total sales of its predecessor, The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings.

Unlike the previous entries, The Witcher 3 takes place in a sprawling multi-region open world, offering over 100 hours of content across dynamic landscapes. Inspired by the scale of games like Skyrim but over 20% larger the developers aimed to refine the open-world experience by learning from industry benchmarks while addressing their shortcomings.

Powered by the cutting-edge REDengine 3, the game was built with extensive fan feedback in mind. As always, player choices carry weight, shaping the narrative in significant and sometimes unexpected ways. This is not just a sequel. It’s a full evolution of the Witcher saga.
