Later, Emhyr welcomes Ciri to the Nilfgaardian court, but, seemingly unbeknownst to him, she turns out to be Teryn posing as Ciri. Captured by bounty hunters, Ciri is saved by the Rats, a bandit group who encourage her to kill her kidnapper. When they ask her name, Ciri introduces herself as "Falka".
