The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - The Wolven Storm - Priscilla's Song lyrics

These scars long have yearned for your tender caress
To bind our fortunes, damn what the stars own
Rend my heart open, then your love profess
A winding, weaving fate to which we both atone
You flee my dream come the morning
Your scent - berries tart, lilac sweet
To dream of raven locks entwisted, stormy
Of violet eyes, glistening as you weep
The wolf I will follow into the storm
To find your heart, its passion displaced
By ire ever growing hardening into stone
Amidst the cold to hold you in a heated embrace
You flee my dream come the morning
Your scent - berries tart, lilac sweet
To dream of raven locks entwisted, stormy
Of violet eyes, glistening as you weep
I know not if fate would have us live as one
Or if by love's blind chance we've been bound
The wish I whispered, when it all began
Did it forge a love you might never have found?
You flee my dream come the morning
Your scent - berries tart, lilac sweet
To dream of raven locks entwisted, stormy
Of violet eyes, glistening as you weep

[@mrmac8540]

Yes you are correct but it's not one woman whogeralt loves it's two, triss is Berry's tart and yen is liylac sweet, in the game things happen leaving him in a situation. in Witcher 2 geralt lost his memory and triss helped him and he fell in love with no bindings no tricks. She helped him remember who he was because people were taking advantage of his forgetfully situation and he remembered yen. In the game you can't do both so it leaves you with a choice and a song like that to make you think before them choices come up

[@caffeinedelusions]

Yen is both. Her scent is literally called out as gooseberries and lilac flowers on MULTIPLE occasions. Triss doesn't even factor in. She's someone who used him for wish fulfillment when he didn't remember why he shouldn't.

[@Johnandwhitehowl]

I came in very late to the Witcher love- I was so invested in Game of Thrones. The fact I had read the books before the show had me even more curious to see what they did on the show..... to see its outcome. I can happily say, I swallowed my pride of "You missed out on one of the greatest games of all time in 2015" and played it as of late. Since then, I have went on to reading the books. This song was so good that it inspired me to now work on a FULL WITCHER TIMELINE- on my channel, starting with Duny and Pavetta. I now thank this game for forcing me to "GO PLAY, GO READ"' I love this story and now find myself fascinated with characters such as Leo Bonhart- I guess the point of this ramble is..... Great series yall, it is never too late.....

[@spacemonkey2665]

i played the game from an old save (more than 4 hours) of game play again just to get to this point of the game where i'd leave the controller and just daydream with this song.

[@aleksandragieralt7370]

Is Priscilla crying at the end? Gosh that almost made me cry (I have cried during this song before but I heard a different version)

[@AnInsaneOstrich]

I just realised, the song kind of mentions Geralt and Yennefer, the whole "Wolf" thing as Geralt is know as the "White Wolf" and got taught at the school of the wolf. As of Yennefer, "To dream of raven locks entwisted, stormy" Yennefer is shown in the opening cutscene, with a raven (that later explodes into a crystal skull you can pick up and do nothing with) and her hair (locks) is black, as a raven, if you will. "Your scent - *berries* tart, *lilac* sweet" and Geralt asks villagers of white orchard "have you seen a woman, wears black and white, smells of *lilac* and *gooseberries*. oh, and "Violet eyes"

[@AnInsaneOstrich]

until recently, i didn't know Geralt and Yennefer were bound by a wish Geralt made to a djinn to save Yennefer.

[@XxAshleyRaynexX]

She also can use stormy magic

[@BrideOfTheDawn]

Also yen has violet eyes, and then there's the part about the wish that he "whispered when it all began". It was a wish made to a djinn that was initially believed to have bound Yen and Geralt together.

[@gerritvalkering1068]

@Ashley - I think the storm bit is more about that Geralt (and Yen) had been involved in a lot of tumultuous events even before The Witcher I, and it only had been getting more 'stormy' since then. @aninsaneostrich - I'm sure if you've continued the game you've met some places where people actually recognize Geralt from the song. "So that song is about you and that sorceress?" ".... Yes." Slight spoilers about the background of Yen and Geralt follows: In the game is a book called The Last Wish. This is actually also the title of an actual book and it details how Geralt and Yennefer meet, and the time following that. Geralt and Dandelion find an object, an urn iirc, that holds a Djinn. As in legends, a Djinn is forced to fulfil 3 wishes to the one releasing it. As it happens, Dandelion is the one who thinks he opened it, but it was actually Geralt. His first wish is, by the way, for the Djinn to "Go away and go plow yourself", as the Djinn had been trying to kill Dandelion for having the nerve to try and order it around.Yennefer finds out about this as Geralt asks her for help to heal Dandelion who was seriously injured by the Djinn. Yen has one burning wish, and she plans on forcing Dandelion (who still thinks he is the one who released it) to use his wishes and then recapturing the Djinn to grant her her wish: To make her fertile again, so she can have children. As she tries to subdue it, things do not quite go as planned. Geralt has by now used another wish, I forgot for what. When he gets to the place where Yen is losing her struggle against the Djinn he uses his last wish to bind their fates together and stop the Djinn from interfering. Was it mentioned that Geralt had been fascinated by Yennefer? He was fascinated by her. Ever since they are always drawn to each other. At some times Yennefer loves him, at others she detests being bound like that. They love each other and at the same time neither is sure if they love each other because of the wish only. For those who cheer for Triss - Triss never knew Geralt until Yennefer introduced them. She absolutely knew he and Yen were bound to each other with the wish but when he lost his memory in Withcer I she took full advantage of him. Further, in Witcer II, where Ciri has entered the picture, Yen and Geralt decide to hide her from a circle of sorceresses who wanted to use Ciri for their own gain. Triss betrays their hiding place. I'm honestly amazed Geralt will even talk to Triss, but as he says, "we've known each other a long time".
