This discovery comes afterCD Projekt Red’srecent 20th Anniversary livestream when developer Phil Weber revealed that there was one last mystery to be found.

He hinted that the discovery was related to one important character and that the secret could be discovered around the Crookback Bog area where Geralt meets the crones earlier on in the game.

After this announcement, Youtuber xLetalis booted upThe Witcher 3and headed back to the bog to uncover the secrets behind this hidden ending.

After this, Geralt can return to Crookback Bog and see the only-living sister weaving a tapestry and talking to her dead sisters. The crone reveals that Ciri froze to death just before Geralt reunites her with her siblings.

It has now been discovered that after returning to the tapestry after the game, one of xLetalis' viewers

noticed that a previously undecipherable mark appears to mimic Tor Gvalch’ca’s concept art with a small bird flying away.

Considering Ciri’s name, Zireael, translates to swallow in Elven, this imagery could mean that she was able to escape from the tower and is not dead after all.

Additionally, some fans believe that this could mean Ciri will return as the main character in the upcomingThe Witcher 4but that remains to be seen.
