Netflix has revealed the first official look at Freya Allan as Ciri in The Witcher Season 2.
The two new photos were shared to The Witcher’s official Twitter account on Tuesday in a post that teases Ciri’s training at Kaer Morhen, as the accompanying tweet reads: “She gave tearful goodbyes on a most violent night. Now this child of surprise is preparing to fight.”
The photos were also posted on the show’s official Instagram page, with a caption that suggests that Ciri has been “spending time with a witcher.” In the first snap, Ciri has swapped out her usual hooded robes for a combat-ready outfit, as she clutches for a weapon by her side. The second image reveals that her weapon is a wooden practice sword, which further teases Ciri and Geralt’s training sessions.

The official synopsis for The Witcher Season 2 confirms that Ciri will be visiting the Witcher castle Kaer Morhen, which is presumably the snow-covered surroundings that she is pictured in above.
It reads: “Convinced Yennefer’s life was lost at the Battle of Sodden, Geralt of Rivia brings Princess Cirilla to the safest place he knows, his childhood home of Kaer Morhen. While the Continent’s kings, elves, humans, and demons strive for supremacy outside its walls, he must protect the girl from something far more dangerous: the mysterious power she possesses inside.”

These two new images follow the release of the first-look photos of Henry Cavill as Geralt of Rivia yesterday, which shows the White Wolf suited up in his new armour. In the photos, the actor wears an all-black studded leather outfit with large shoulder plates and extended wrist cuffs, together with some belt and buckle detailing to ensure that he’s harnessed in for any dual-wielding.
