Synopsis: |
“The Hexer” is an adaptation of the fantasy short story
series “The Sword of Destiny” and “The Last Request” by Andrzej
Sapkowski. The hero, Geralt, is a master beast slayer, hunting succubae,
werewolves, vampires, and basilisks that terrorize human civilization.
He is chasing, or perhaps escaping, the fate foretold for him by the old
prophecy: “The Sword of Destiny has two blades. One of them is You.” Who
or what is the second? |
