Geralt discovers a secluded mansion where he is welcomed by its unusual owner -- a beast with the faculties of man. The creature invites him inside, divulging stories of his family, his past, and ... his curse. If the weight of his misdeeds could condemn him to the body of a beast -- a judgment passed only in fairy tales -- could there be another grain of truth to these stories of fantasy, one that could help him elude his fate and lead him to salvation?
