    Summary

    It starts like this:
    Geralt Rivia ends up motherless at eight, with a little brother trawling behind him and an estranged uncle taking him in.

    Or maybe it starts like this:
    Renfri is born two months early, scrawny and pale to a father already drinking himself to death and a mother who dies within a day of her birth.

    But really it starts like this:
    The town of Blaviken likes to take people and spit them back up, deciding their lives. Or in simpler words: it's a shit hole, an old mining town in the middle of nowhere in a part of England best known for it's bad weather. Fathers are perpetually drunk or absent and mothers have smiles that don't reach their eyes. Girls drop out at sixteen and are pulled into the half crumbling church with swollen bellies. Boys end up drunk, or stuck in prison, or both. The lucky ones run away or slit their wrists.
