The streaming giant dropped a trailer for the show’s second season earlier in July, revealing it will return to screens in December.

Picking up where the first season left off, Geralt of Rivia (Henry Cavill), a monster hunter for hire who was mutated and trained from an early age to slay deadly beasts, has finally met up with the exiled Princess Ciri (Freya Allan) in the two-minute teaser.

Their relationship is expected to be the main focus of the fantasy drama’s upcoming season, according to IndieWire.

In its synopsis, Netflix described season two: ‘Convinced Yennefer’s life was lost at the Battle of Sodden, Geralt of Rivia brings Princess Cirilla to the safest place he knows, his childhood home of Kaer Morhen.’
