The Witcher Season 3 will be an adaption of the second proper novel in The Witcher Saga, titled 'Time of Contempt.' Lauren Hissrich recognized that Season 2 was very different from the books, with some new plotlines and character upgrades added to the Netflix drama. He also stated on Twitter that the third season would adapt the source material much more closely.

In that book, Yennefer, Ciri and Geralt reunited and traveled to the Brotherhood's headquarters of Aretuza (season 2 finale). In 'Time of Contempt', a revolution takes place, so the main character of the story may separate again.
