Derek and John are back to discuss the Rats A Witcher Tale. A special feature length episode featuring Ciri's companions from the Witcher Season 4. We chat all about it in full spoiler filled detail.

Spoilers for The Rats A Witcher Tale.

Based on the books by Andrzej Sapkowski and the game series "The Witcher" from CD Projekt Red

Showrunner and Lead Writer: Lauren Schmidt-Hissrich

Written by Lauren Schmidt-Hissrich and Haily Hall

Directed by Mairzee Almas

Synopsis: Following the events of the Season 4 finale, Leo Bonhart recounts to Ciri how The Rats first crossed his path. The tale centers on Mistle, a highborne woman secretly in love with her handmaiden Juniper. Their lives are torn apart when Emehr, Emperor of Nilfgaard, sends his mercenary Bert Brigden to purge towns outside imperial control. Believing Juniper dead, Mistle narrowly survives with the help of Asse, her stablehand, who escapes with her and eventually leads them to join The Rats.

As the young thieves’ opportunities dwindle, their leader Giselher proposes an ambitious heist: infiltrate a new fighting arena established by Dominik Houvenaghel and rob its vault during a major event. The vault, however, is guarded by a Jalowick, a monster that only a Witcher can kill. Desperate, The Rats recruit Brehen, a disgraced and alcoholic former Witcher infamous for abandoning a striga contract.

Training under Kayleigh and Reef, Asse prepares for his fight, but everything unravels when Mistle discovers the arena’s true purpose. It was built by Brigden, who, eager to earn Emehr’s favor, has been conducting horrific experiments to create a new kind of monster—using human subjects, including Juniper. Determined to save her, The Rats and Brehen attempt to restore Juniper’s humanity while evading Bonhart, who is hunting them to claim Brehen’s Witcher medallion.

The story culminates in a brutal clash. Brehen sacrifices himself so The Rats can escape, thwarting Bonhart—for the moment. Their flight across the Continent continues until fate brings them to Princess Cirilla of Cintra, and toward the end of their road.

Morpheus comes back to his realm and momentarily breaks the hold of The Kindly Ones on Lyta after she sees that her son Daniel is alive. But The Kindly Ones refuse to free her saying they aren’t her to retrieve Daniel they are here for vengeance. 

To save his realm Morpheus goes to the waking world to kill Lyta, but Mad Hettie has put protections around Lyta to prevent this. She tells Morpheus that Daniel won't be happy with him if he kills his mother and that’s the last thing he needs. 

In the land of Faery, Nuala makes peace with Cluracan and Titania and is allowed to return to the Dreaming.

His sister Death arrives and Dream sends Matthew to bring her to him. Death and Morpheus talk for some time and finally Morpheus takes her hand to accept his death and goes with her. 

At the same moment, The Kindly Ones vanish and Nuala takes Lyta Hall’s head in the Dreaming. Lyta wakes up in the waking world and Daniel, suddenly an adult as the new Dream, starts to repair the realm and as Delirium is reunited with her dog Barnabas she realises her brother Dream is gone.
