"The End of the World" is a short story by Andrzej Sapkowski and the sixth in the "Last Desire" series.
The story covers the first adventure of the bard Dandelion and the wizard Geralt.
Two people joined by fate are in Gornja Posada, where they are actively looking for work. After a few hours, Geralt concludes that the stories of the locals are just that...rumors and nothing more, and he heads towards the End of the World with his faithful companion.
This is just an introduction to the interesting adventure of these two characters, which the writer (author of the adaptation) Magdalena Salik said was her favorite. When asked why, he answers: "Because of the characters, which are very diverse and counter-intuitive. Everyone has an idea about demons and fairies…ignore them. In this story, Sapkowski plays with your preconceived notions of heroes and villains. There are many crafts of the shop. To me, it's one of the wisest short stories ever.”
The End of the World will be published in hardcover in bookstores already on December 17th and the price will be slightly less than 18 US dollars.
In addition, we also receive information that CD Projekt RED is working on a completely new Witcher project.
After completing the Cyberpunk 2077 game and arranging the unfinished parts of the action role-playing game, the studio focused on the Witcher 4 game.
Of course, we don't know what the real name of the fourth Witcher series is, but we do know that it is codenamed "Polaris".
It has been confirmed that over 400 developers are currently working on this project, representing over 60% of the studio's total workforce. Despite this, the project is only in an early stage and we cannot expect the final version before 2026.
