#book ciri

[arianaofimladris]

To say I'm thrilled is an understatement. It seems that with a bit of patience from the photographer, and with said photographer being a good friend, I can actually end up having some decent pictures (and I got all 180 of them to pick the ones I like most). He also trains with sword, so he showed me how to actually wield my sword to look a tiny bit more convincing.

Here's my book Ciri.

And here's the ruins of Bolczów castle in all the autumn colors. It still looks like Witcher 3 location.

I’m finally reading the Witcher 7 (lady of the lake) and wanted to draw another Ciri based only on the book description. I love her evolution through the books and so excited to continue reading;D❤️

Nothing unusual. Just Dandelion being Dandelion and Geralt being Lambert!

a thing about the witcher books's perception that drives me insane is that you'll have people who've straight up never read them saying "oh aren't they super problematic tho???" based on the testimony of people who ALSO haven't read them but heard from someone who read them and didn't like them that they're bad.

like i'll use the example that I had before i read the books: there's a scene in blood of elves where ciri is like "the girls at school told me virgins can't do magic! i'm bad at magic because i'm a virgin! i'm gonna lose my virginity [at 13]" and yeah ok if you phrase it like that with zero context it sounds insane.

but the CONTEXT IS. ciri has just fumbled her crush, she's failing magic class, the other girls hate her because she's getting extra attention from the teachers, and her mean teacher mum (who's literally the hottest woman alive) keeps on calling her "ugly one". she's in a CRISIS and decides to link all of her self esteem issues into one thing that she can fix!!!

and literally the next line is yennefer saying "ok look if you want to have sex i won't stop you,, even though you're too young imo. but where the hell have you gotten this "virgins can't do magic" bs because i have a master's degree in sorcery (and didn't have sex until my 20s) and it's news to me!!"

but then you'll have people go "In the Witcher is sooooo misogynistic the lore says virgins can't do magic" like that wasn't textually folklore that was complete rubbish.

this is one of the dumbest things i’ve ever drawn, but in my defence in was done in the middle of class.

reading the witcher books after watching the netflix series is such a slap to the face (positive) mostly because of how much sweeter geralt is to everyone but also just because of. everything. I’m mostly talking about how he treats dandelion (jaskier) because the show did them dirty

(all from the last wish and sword of destiny)

netflix geralt: jaskier we aren’t friends >:(

book geralt, absolutely unprompted: ah yes, my dear friend dandelion

and ALSO his dynamic with ciri is absolutely GOLD

(-sword of destiny) like. god I’m liable to get emotional, geralt, stop being sweet

I don’t have pictures but his relationship with yennefer is also so much better in the books and get this

the geraskier mountain divorce didn’t happen

tl;dr if you liked the netflix series (or even if you didn’t) you should definitely check out the books. the characters are so much more developed and the writing style is gorgeous. I’ve read three of them since getting the series last week.

I just wanted to share a quick fanart of how I imagine Ciri from the Witcher books:D I’m currently OBSESSED with this series and would 100% recommend reading it.

It's soon to be here...

After 6 months of hard work, I’m proud to bring you this (nearly) 3 hour long Witcher video essay:

The Rise and Fall of The Witcher

How did the fate of Poland in the shadow of World War II affect the development of Polish sci-fi and fantasy? How did "Witcher" get its start, and why was it such a literary phenomenon? Why do so many Witcher fans DISLIKE the Netflix show? What do George Orwell and Aldous Huxley have to do with any of this? In the wake of the Netflix series’ cancellation—with its fifth season being its last—I am retracing the story of The Witcher.
