Letho

A key figure in the assassinations.

Reference

Quick notes

  • Geralt follows an assassination mystery. Letho’s role connects the political assassinations with Geralt’s personal history.
  • Roche and Iorveth define the branch. Both are substantial story figures, but choosing one changes where Geralt spends Act II.
  • Friends have their own circumstances. Triss, Dandelion and Zoltan help connect the investigation to people on the ground.
  • Choices affect later relationships. The same named figure can be encountered under different circumstances across routes.
