Mages in 'The Witcher' are taught that fire magic is forbidden, but what makes it so dangerous?
Netflix's The Witcher has everything a fan of fantasy could ask for: riveting action, fantastic creatures, captivating mysteries, and intrigue. And, as with much of the fantasy genre, magic is one of the most fascinating aspects of the series. Magic in The Witcher is not something to be taken lightly; it's consistently treated as something dangerous, powerful, and not without cost.
Fire magic is considered one of the most dangerous because of how much it demands from its users. It has the inherent ability to consume its user when called upon. It is the most dangerous force of nature with the capacity and hunger to endlessly consume, a source of corruption and consumption that carries power because of its destructive capabilities. Fire can demand everything from its user, even their life.
When the battle seemed all but lost, Yennefer eventually resorted to channeling fire magic herself in order to defeat the Nilfgaardians. In order to win, Yennefer absorbed the fire consuming the keep behind her and unleashed the full breadth of its power against the opposing army. This display of unfathomable power led to their victory as she set the battlefield ablaze in fiery wrath.
How Does the Series Differ From its Source Material? The show's interpretation of fire magic is distinct from its source material, the book series written by Polish author Andrzej Sapkowski, but is rooted in the same concept of its hungering and corrupting nature. In the books, sorcerers don't crumble into ash the way they do in the show. However, the cost of wielding fire magic is still high.
