Episode Synopsis

The roads in Velen are stained with mud, sorrow, and the long echo of war. Broken huts stand like battered teeth in the jaw of the countryside. Smoke coils from burned-out homes. Children scavenge while crows watch from the trees. But in the heart of this ruin stands Crow’s Perch, a battered keep atop a hill, and within it — a man who once ruled with iron and ale: Phillip Strenger, better known by those who feared and loathed him, as the Bloody Baron.
