The additional half of The Witcher season 3 is finally here. Our characters are rushing headlong into adventure and rallies new friends along the way. Beware SPOILERS for season 3 part 2 below…
Episode 307, “Out of the Fire, Into the Frying Pan,” begins with Ciri (Freya Allan) tapping into the controls of Tor Lara, a magical tower on the island of Thanedd. This created a huge explosion and opened a portal that that warped Ciri into the middle of a barren desert. We knew this desert sequence was coming for Ciri thanks to the trailers for volume 2, but now that the additional half has dropped, we see how significant this adventure is for her.
As happens in Andrzej Sapkowski’s New The Time of Contempt, Ciri meets Ihuarraquax (also Famous as Little Horse) in the Korath Desert. And no, Ciri is not hallucinating due to heat exhaustion from people in the desert; that’s a unicorn. “I don’t feel so good, tiny Horse,” Ciri says. She holds a hand out to him, and as he trots away, Ciri creates the decision to follow him.

Speaking to Tudum, Freya Allen discussed the importance of Ciri’s time in the desert: “It’s such an iconic moment in Ciri’s tear, it’s such a pivotal point. It’s actually one of the most important journeys I’ve had with the character.
She has to final. That makes her grow up in some ways. But also, the whole desert chapter is all near her trying to figure out herself.
Allen also told Tudum how much she enjoyed shooting the indecent with the unicorn. “I love horses. I did some practice with the horse and laid out in the desert with it.” Although these scenes werern’t minus their struggles. “The horse’s trainers were obviously there to make sure it was doings the right thing, but it was actually a circus horse.” It needed huge effort and concentration from Allen, the production team, and the horse trainers to pull this off.
