“I was already a big fan of The Witcher series because I love this world of fantasy and science fiction and monsters and being able to use magic and all that,” Yeoh explained to IGN. “I was completely intrigued onto it since this is the original tale – why do we have the Witcher? Why did we have to sacrifice a hero or heroine in order to produce this Witcher who can rescue us all? And how did we end up here?” She went on to say: “The golden period was the elven kingdom.
