In “Nightmare of the Wolf,” we see Vesemir fighting a leshen. The leshen wipes out one kid’s whole family just before his eyes and when Vesemir appears he shapeshifts into a bat. Vesemir is amused by his ability to transform and the true fans will know what his response about the druids meant.

Strange Idols

We will not just see Leshens in the movie but several other creatures too. The Witcher fans will have no trouble in recognizing them. We get to see wraiths, werewolves, “higher” vampires, krallachs, strigas, and some slithering ones in the laboratory tanks.

One more Easter egg a “Witcher” fan may understand is the moment when Vesemir predicts the youthful Witchers who are probably going to live through. “Witcher” watchers might realize why he says “maybe Remus”, since he meets his end and saying this must not just be a coincidence.

The movie’s climax will satisfy all the fans who were longing to see Geralt of Rivia and Vesemir together. Because it is all because of Geralt, he and the rest of them were able to escape and survive. Vesemir becomes a witcher trainer and while uses the same phrase his mentor, Deglan, uses, “There will always be another monster.”
