Story's background The Witcher 2 - Assassins of kings
After helping to stop the rebellion undertaken by the Order of Flaming Rose and saving King Foltest’s life, Geralt became one of the central figures of political turmoil in the Kingdom of Temeria. The witcher continues to protect the King in his mission to restore peace in the country. The last bastion of the Order yielded to the royal army. The only remaining task is to pacify the rebellious castle of Baroness La Valette, who announced separation from the Kingdom. It’s been a month since the attempted assassination of the King, when his army arrives at the gates of Baroness's fortress, preparing for the final battle. In the meantime, Geralt, stuck with Foltest, cannot begin his personal quest - to discover the origin and identity of the mysterious witcher-like assassin responsible for the attempt on Foltest's life.
