In the morning, Geralt approaches the seemingly-restored Adda, but the girl attacks and wounds him. Geralt fights the striga, but, unable to subdue it, seals himself into its crypt, forcing it to spend the night outside its lair, lifting the curse. Geralt refuses, knocks out Ostrit, and uses him as bait.

Ostrit wants to use the striga as proof of Foltest's inability to rule, to support Novigrad's usurpation of Foltest. Lord Ostrit, a magnate from Novigrad, tries to bribe Geralt into leaving. Geralt prepares to spend the night at the old palace which houses the striga. Geralt is unsure whether Adda can live a normal life even if the curse is lifted. Foltest insists that Adda not be harmed, but grants Geralt permission to kill her if the curse cannot be lifted. The King of Temeria, Foltest, has offered a reward to anyone who can lift the curse on his daughter, Adda (the result of an incestuous union with his late sister), who was born as a striga, and terrorizes the town every night. The two make love, and fall asleep together, with Geralt dreaming of his fight with the monster who wounded him.
