The Witcher Season 2: Yennefer & Tissaia Discuss the Challenges Ahead

Okay, serious props to Netflix's The Witcher fans because your choices have been on-point when it comes to the first three days of "Witchmas." With the Henry Cavill (Geralt), Anya Chalotra (Yennefer), and Freya Allan (Ciri)-starring series returning on December 17, today's "gift" was a fine follow-up to yesterday's honoring of Roach. With the choice of "Embrace," we have a clip from Season 2 where Yennefer and Tissaia (MyAnna Buring) discuss the challenges that await after the Battle of Sodden Hill.

Now here's a look at today sneak preview "gift," with only three days to go until Netflix's The Witcher returns for a second season:

And on Monday, December 20, at 11 am ET/8 am PT (on Netflix Geeked's Facebook page and "The Witcher" YouTube channel), fans can look forward to the next installment in Netflix's "Unlocked" after-show series, with The Witcher superfan Felicia Day hosting The Witcher: Unlocked. Over the course of the 60-minute special, fans will be taken on a deep dive into the second season along with the cast and creative team behind the streaming series. In addition, the after-show will include two never-before-seen deleted scenes from the second season, as well as some additional intel on how this season's action sets up the upcoming prequel series The Witcher: Blood Origin and impacts the third season of The Witcher. Here's a look at what you can expect:

Convinced Yennefer's life was lost at the Battle of Sodden, Geralt of Rivia brings Princess Cirilla to the safest place he knows, his childhood home of Kaer Morhen.
