The next season will either bring the family back or destroy them for good. Season 5 needs to clear the air about Ciri's fate, the storm Yennefer walked into, and if Geralt will ever feel like that knighthood was worth it.

Here are 5 pertinent questions Season 5 must answer.


5 biggest questions The Witcher Season 5 needs to answer after the twisted Season 4 finale

Q1. Will Yennefer return after she jumped into that deadly portal?

The Witcher Season 5 needs to explain what happened to Yennefer. The last time we saw her, she literally stepped into a dark portal and got sucked into a violent ocean storm. She did it because she believed this was the only way to get to Vilgefortz. But now she could be lost in a realm she knows nothing about.

In The Witcher Season 5, this is a huge question for the fans because Yennefer is actually the only mage who truly understands the danger of Vilgefortz on a deeper level. In Season 4, she was rebuilding trust between sorceresses. She wanted this new Lodge to protect magic and also make the Continent safer for Ciri.

But all of this is thrown into the fire when she decides to go alone. Season 5 needs to tell us if that gamble was a mistake or the exact move destiny needed her to make.


Q2. Will Ciri finally drop the Falka name and fight her father’s plan?

Ciri lost everything in Season 4. She lost her gang. She lost Mistle. She lost the last bit of childhood she was clinging to. In The Witcher Season 5, she cannot run anymore. Her father wants to marry her and use her powers because of an ancient prophecy. She is stuck under Bonhart's control. And she has become a girl who knows violence in her bones.

The Witcher Season 5 needs to tell us if Ciri will reject Freya and return to being Ciri again. Or if she will choose to weaponize that darker side. Season 5 also needs to show if destiny still connects her to Geralt and Yennefer because this season could be the one where she accepts who she is instead of trying to escape it.


Q3. What will Geralt do with his knighthood if it’s not even what he wanted anymore?

Geralt finally got the one thing he had always dreamed about when he was little. A real knighthood. But the gag is that he is not even happy about it. He wants his family more than any medal or title. So, in The Witcher Season 5, the biggest question is: will Geralt stay bound to the crown? Or will he throw away the title and go rogue again?

Season 5 can show a Geralt who is torn between duty and love. His crew acted like family, his victory came with blood on his hands and heartbreak in his head. So, all in all, this knighthood (for now) does not feel like a real crown. It feels like a trap. The Witcher Season 5 needs to answer what path Geralt chooses now.


Q4. Will the Lodge actually protect magic or just repeat old power games?

A new group of sorceresses is forming. But, in The Witcher Season 5, we need to know if these women will actually keep magic safer or just go back to fighting for power like the Brotherhood.

Yennefer believed they could rise above all that but now that she is gone, Season 5 needs to show us if this Lodge will team up or fall apart because protecting Ciri will become their main reason for existing and the Lodge needs to prove it is not just a political club.


Q5. Will destiny bring Geralt, Ciri and Yennefer together again?

The Witcher Season 5 is the final contract for this family. They are broken. They are traumatized. They are scattered on different paths. Season 5 needs to bring them back, or we need to see if destiny destroys them.


The Witcher Season 5 has the biggest pressure of all time because it has to close the story with proper answers. Season 5 cannot run away from the pain Season 4 created. It needs to prove that this found family still matters.

And every fan is waiting to see if destiny brings them home or leaves them wandering alone forever.
