When the child was born, they named her Cirilla Fiona Ellen Riannon.
Gaining Calanthe's forgiveness and approval of being together with her daughter, Duny's curse is lifted.Īfter thanking Geralt, he and his future wife were surprised with the news that Pavetta was pregnant, and Duny was soon to be a father. After Geralt and Mousesack silenced Pavetta, Urcheon, now presenting himself as Duny, Prince of Maecht and son of Akerspaark, regained human form as it had struck midnight. A brawl ensued between Urcheon, the queen's vassals, Pavetta's would-be suitors, and the witcher Geralt until Pavetta suppressed it with an outburst of her power, causing pandemonium all around. After a long and heated exchange, Urcheon was fooled by Calanthe into removing his helmet before midnight, exposing his monstrous form, yet Pavetta stated her approval of Urcheon nonetheless. Urcheon declared that Pavetta was to be his as she is the object of the Law of Surprise Urcheon enacted when he rescued Calanthe's deceased husband, the former King Roegner, from woe 15 years past. When, the following year, the queen hosted a feast for Pavetta's soon-to-be wedding, he took the opportunity and announced that from her birth, the princess had belonged to him, and that he had now come for her. In 1237, while prowling Cintra's forest region, he ran into a wounded and helpless King Roegner and after saving him asked for "that which the king found but did not expect when he returned home", conveniently using the Law of Surprise.įifteen years later, he presented himself before Calanthe and her vassals during Pavetta's 15th birthday and the choosing from her would-be suitors at the city of Cintra.Īlthough Princess Pavetta was to be wed that year, Duny visited her one year before, and they secretly fell in love. Only results"Īfter some time, Emhyr finally arrived in the North and used the moniker "Duny, Urcheon of Erlenwald".
He met with an astrologer Xarthisius who led him to the North, "beyond the Marnadal Steps", to look for a cure for his curse. In his escape, Emhyr counted on a few loyal acquaintances for help while hiding at Ardal aep Dahy's place. Despite this, Emhyr survived and learned the sorcerer hadn't even done a thorough job on the curse: every night Emhyr regain his human form. Having no more use for Emhyr, he was then released into the woods with dogs set on him. This was to serve as a way to break Fergus and force him to grant legitimacy to the coup but the plan failed and the Usurper killed Emhyr's father. A sorcerer named Braathens, under the service of the Usurper, turned Emhyr into a humanoid hedgehog form, partially as a joke, as the word "Eimyr" in Nilfgaardian dialect meant "urcheon", an old name for a hedgehog. Not much is disclosed on Emhyr's childhood until he was 13 and his father, the emperor of Nilfgaard at the time, was deposed from his title, imprisoned and tortured after a coup led by an influential aristocrat. "Emperors command moltitudes, yet cannot control two things: their time and their hearts" He was publicly favorable to the Elder Race, in stark contrast to monarchs of the North. He was ruthless toward traitors and moved towards his goals with great determination. He chose his people well and crushed many plots against him. Emhyr var Emreis was an intelligent and brilliant ruler. This led to the outbreak of two wars against the Northern Kingdoms, both of which he lost. His rule of Nilfgaard was highly aggressive, often pursuing expansionist policies similar to those of his predecessors. "Patience is not a virtue I am known to have"Įmhyr var Emreis was the Imperator of the Nilfgaardian Empire, Lord of Metinna, Ebbing, Gemmera, Sovereign of Nazair, Vicovaro and, after marrying Cirilla, King of Cintra, from 1257 when he overthrew the Usurper who murdered his father, Fergus var Emreis, until his death sometime in the late 13th century.
