[UPDATE]
More photos, this time Freya Allan (Ciri) has joined the main cast of Frensham Little Pond, and we can also confirm the presence of Royce Pierreson (Istredd).
Also, dialogue between the two main characters was heard during filming. We do not know the context of the scene, so we cannot jump to conclusions, but it is hard not to wonder who the protagonists are talking about. Of course, we warn against SPOILERS .
Yennefer : He is not here. He never was. (He’s not here and never has been)
Ciri : You betrayed us. We were in trouble and needed your help. (You betrayed us. We were in trouble and we needed you)
Yennefer : I was selfish, stupid. Come with me, get the horses. Now! (I was selfish and stupid. Come with me, bring the horses. Now!)

Good news for fans waiting for the premiere, photos in key locations are starting again. First, the camera focused on the set in the Arborfield studio and the town built there. Perhaps some scenes related to Kaer Morhen were also shot, which is also a studio set, not an outdoor setting. Currently, however, the most important location is Frensham Little Pond, where not only preparations for important sequences, but also the members of the main cast have been noticed.
At the beginning, the scenery itself – according to the author of most of the photos, Sarah Talib, the work seems to be concentrated around the forest on the hill and at the very pond, where the crew has been preparing the set for the recordings for some time. The points are a few minutes away from each other, but cars have been spotted in both of them, so they will probably serve as a background for one scene.
As for the cast – bathed in the light of the rising sun, we can see Henry Cavill himself in the make-up of the White Wolf.
The observer also managed to make a short video showing the scene being shot. We see two figures talking on the side and then returning to the place from which the loaded wagon departs, surrounded by people and farm animals. As for the talking characters, one of them seems to be Yennefer (the black, long gown in the video looks similar to the outfit Anya Chalotra wore during shooting at Fountains Abbey, in a scene with other magicians ). It is not yet recognizable who her companion is, although it has been speculated that it may be Dandelion (Joey Batey) or Istredd (Royce Pierreson). Geralt and Yennefer had already filmed a scene together in this location just before the shooting was paused , so it would not be a surprise if we saw them together there.
The next photos and videos show more shots of the caravan of carts. However, that’s not all …
The photos also show elves and Nilfgaardian-looking characters. Fans write that a long blonde wig may indicate the presence of Filavandrel (Tom Canton) on the set.
Nie wiadomo, jak długi czas ekipa spędzi we Frensham Little Pond, plotki jednak głoszą, że potrwać to może nawet do dwóch tygodni. Wydaje się coraz bardziej prawdopodobne, że kręcone są wydarzenia z Krwi elfów, a dokładniej sceny z transportem wozów. Jeremy Crawford, grający Yarpena Zigrina, napisał kilka dni temu na Twitterze, że „czas wracać do pracy”, a wiadomo, że krasnolud był bardzo ważnym uczestnikiem wspomnianego wydarzenia.
