" STUCK IN HER SHADOW."

First and probably last time I will be talking about the Netflix witcher in a full post.)

How the season 4 development sabotaged its owns writing.

Let's talk about the Emperor character in the witcher Netflix series.

( spoiler from the book and the show)

I- How he was portrayed in the 3 seasons.

In season 1 and 2 ,He is a menace, with apparently no moral limits. The mages of his armies used dark magic, get a baby killed but still have deep loyal followers.

He is also a mystery, because Sigmund, even with the resources of the Redenia Intelligence know nothing about him. The scene with Sigmund also tell us one info, that the " Emperor" seems not to be "human", in a sense that there is no weakness, no guilty pleasure that the Redenia Intelligence could use against him.

In season 2 and 3 ,we learn more about why some of them are loyal : Fringilla and Cahir.

Both got saved during the war against the imposter from their horrible situations.

In season 3, we see a new facet, the manipulating side :

In my interpretation, he plays a role dependent on with who he is talking to, he is faking a personality,to help him to more manipulated his interlocutor, faking a sence of security,

particularly in the dicussion with Cahir.

The purpose of this tactics could be to make them do what he want,almost making them think that his idea was their ideas all along.

It helps to amplify the mysterious side. Nothing is known about him, even if you achieve to interact with him,because he changes personality when you talk to him,( depending on who he interacts with) everyone sees a fake.

Then there is one scene.

Where he is alone.

Burning up old paintings of his past life as Duny, portrait of him and Pavetta, Pavetta but he can't burn one painting, the painting of his child...

This scene shows another side, since he is alone, his true face.

Him, wanting to erase his past to fully become this Emperor ,this monster with not limits, that nobody can read...

But can't, because of his daughter,last thing of this past life still alive...

Before Season 4 you could interpret this as his difficulty to destroy his last moral ground, the last thing of his past, last thing he cares about...

....

But now, with season 4 the only thing you think is....

" INCEST SUBTEXT"

Which retroactively destroyed everything the scene was trying to imply before, because that the only think you can see right now...

And it is dumb to keep this after ALL the changes made in the adaptation.

II- The incest plot, useless in the book but ESPECIALLY IN THE SHOW

In the book,the plot twist that Duny is the father of Ciri ,is alive and the Emperor arrived very late in the saga, in the lady of the lake the fifth novel, the second to last of the saga.

In the serie netflix,at the end of season 2.

That was good choice because, everyone know the info since witcher 3,diffcult to keep the secret.

Also this didn’t changed all lot of details in the story.

In the book,the northern kingdoms want to find and maybe kill Ciri to prevent Nilfgaard empire to make a union and gain Cintra territory.

I don't remembers if in the show the northern kingdoms or Redenia knew about this but, the kingdoms would still want to capture Ciri to prevent the Emperor to reclam Cintra territory as regent of the heir( be due to the fact of been his last close relative as her father) . They could even ploting murdering her as bonus of killing the only heir of the widowed and still single emperor, all of this to pull the rug out from under Nilfgaard, who would definitly lost Cintra :

(Queen Meve is a cousin of the Cintra familly Calanthe side ,closest relative that could inherit the throne so if Nilfgaard want to claim Cintra ,they would lost ressources for conquering the country in the classic way)

and maybe one thing would finally hurt this " not human ruler" in the heart.

Like in the book,the incest prophecy plot was not neccesary, just to make thing gross.

The prophecy could just said that Ciri's blood would still save the world if she sit on the throne of a united continent,so Emhyr decided to do the " dirty work " like invasion and killing at lot of people to do so, do it for " the end justified the means".

This was just an excuse for Geralt not wanting to give Ciri to Emhyr for his plans but the reasons were already there , he had already hurted Ciri life :

- never raised her since he faked his death

- accidentally caused the death of Pavetta, the mother of Ciri with his choices,

- the Massacre of Cintra and the death of her grandmother the one WHO RAISED HER

- the many times where she could have died before Geralt found her and after they get seperated.

- all the traumas and horrible things that she suffered

- he was an ally of Vilgefortz who was a big menace for Ciri safety( Vilgefortz was a traitor and Emhyr still wanted to kill him but HE STILL HELPED HIM BEFORE)

And Emhyr would still continue the speech " But that will save the world! " that would still be in opposition of Geralt mentality which is " Fuck the world! I just want my daughter to be happy!".

How could you trust someone saying he do all this for his daughter, because saving the world would make the daughter happy somehow?

That what Emhyr realised in the book, when he ordered to execute Geralt and Yennefer because there were an obstacle to his objective, that his plan hurt his daughter,that why he gaves up and let them go..

The Show could have easily go that way...

Easily,they had already made the change to facilitate this course.

BUT THEY CHOSE TO KEEP IT!

( my theory is this one way to said in scornful tone to the fans of the original " Why, that the same like in your shitty book...You are happy!!!")

III - They kept the incest,but at least the rest is good right? Yeeeeeehh, No...Season 4 happened.

The good things they ruined it. They made him lost all the others seasons established.

When Book Emhyr realised that the Ciri they brought him is a fake his reaction is..

" I am the only one who noticed,that still secure Cintra in front of the Northern Kingdoms,so let keep the facade and still continue to look for the real."

But in the show he was furious because she was a fake and couldn’t fulfil the prophecy.

He get very angry sure,but at two occasions :

First at the mages who failed to localited Ciri because :

He hates mages( bad history with them since he got cursed)

The mages in general are pretencious because they can use ✨️magic ✨️

They were incapable to succed at the task while a old mage man, who like to watch stars succeeded very fast

So yeah,it was bound to happen, he want results,not empty words.

And he got angry against Vilgefortz because well... He was a traitor, he try to scam him with false Ciri and he was a menace to Ciri.

This type of scene is rare,it take a lot to make him enraged. That what differencing him from the others rulers, he is not easily overwhelmed by his emotions.

But in season 4 they made him too emotional, and it is even the opposite of how they showed him to us in the previous seasons.

And also they made him too motivated to fulfil the incest prophecy, which is gross,unwanted and unjustified.

Even in the book he was not sure about it,avoiding to thinks of it ,trying to concince himself that was "for the good", for saving the univers,he did believe in that part of the plan.

They also abandonned the baby murder plan...like Francesca never try to take revenge when she learn the true...she just get drunk...

That could have been a great possibility for the mysterious and manipulative side.

Imagine :

The baby was not really dead,but to motivated the elves to go to war against the northern kingdoms, Emhyr orders a fake murder :

- Mage from his secrets service used magic maybe black magic to create a fake body,the spell could be inspired by the folklore of changelings in our cultures ( fairies stealing babies,replacing them with piece of wood,giving them the apparence of a child)

-then kidnap the real baby

-" kill the fake one ."

-The secret services would leave clues,to make Francesca believe that this was the Redenia Intelligence behind this murder.

But not everything go according to plan,she kill innocents babies in Redenia, but at least she still want to go to war.

Then she learn the truth by Fringilla ,want to get revenge. The Emperor have his daughter back,she will take her from him,eye for eye,daughter for daughter but when she is ready to do her revenge False Ciri would hold...an elf baby!! The spies heard Fringilla told the trust,that was the emperor behind the "baby death" so they warned the emperor before Francesca arrived.

Then REVELATION

The Excuse about faking the child death,that

" Because the northern kingdoms really wanted to kill the child,so faking her death would protect the baby,kept safe in a hiding place before been brought back to her mother..."

THE EMPEROR MASTER MIND MOMENT

he made people do things but make them feel bad about it.

- Fringilla for casting doubt on the emperor plan, provoking a danger by telling a secret info,showing that she is not a reliable asset for the emperor and should get out of here,far away no to cause any trouble.

- Francesca for almost killing the daughter of the one who " saved " her baby.

He would also imply there are rumors (spread by Nilfgaard spies) that a mage associed with Brotherhood of Sorcerers massacred babies to pratice magic, these mages saws the non magic users as guinea pigs,good things that they are dead in the Thanedd coup.

(people now see the Nilfgaard empire in a good light since they made them fall and they control more the magic users under strict rules.)

But he will make her understand without directly telling her that

he know that she is behind the massacre in Redenia

the( fake) clues were very obvious, how she could have missed that and making her feels more guilty about what she have done

And maybe for the baby, It would be for the best that she go far away from the war and leave the control of the scoia'tael to somebody else

She could still isolated herself in guilt and couldn’t appreciate the compagny of her baby because, as a punishement unbeknown to her, Emhyr would have made one of his spy mage put a little curse on her, one that make her remerbers what she have done each time she look at her child.

He would look like a menace because he still succeded by taking advantage of something he didn’t plan to.

Manipulated everyone,making them thinks everything bad that happened was only theirs faults.

That would also create a mystery,him been pissed at Francesca acts.

Was he angry because she did kill the people he wanted her to kill, or because she killed innocents babies?

Did he didn’t kill the baby just use it as for safety purposes for this type of situation or because the monster was incapable to order the murder of a baby for his plan.....?

IN CONCLUSION

HOW DO THE CURSE OF AO3 GET LIFTED!?

Please TnT

What if each chapters was from the point of view of a different members of the Z team..?

So we learn more about them

Like the épisodes of the first season of Once upon a time

exemple ideas :

- Phenemaman episode is during a valentine days and we see more of his past and how his couple life because so important for him,to because such a mess after the breakup.

-Coupé épisode maybe during her birthday,the team celebrating,but her not used to,because when she was working for a mafia,she was just a tool since childhood

- a episode when we learn more about what are trully demon in this univers with Malevola

- Blonde Blazer episode about more detail how she obtained the amulet and how it didn’t fully make her happy,making her hoping for a more human life.

- Chase flashback when he was young with robert father and slowly realising what his powers are doing to his body,hoping in the present that with now the amulet that will not be the same scenario.

Robert captured/kidnapped by the Red ring , the Z team go save him. They hack the system,making it play one song at loud in the communication : "I want to dance with somebody "by Whistney Houston

And there is a fight scene with this music.
