Netflix’s animated film, The Witcher: Nightmare of the Wolf, introduced fans to iconic characters responsible for some of the most unforgettable lines in the saga. The movie expanded on the rich lore of The Witcher franchise, shedding light on the dark history of the monster slayers.

While the movie mainly follows Vesemir’s journey, it also explores the origin of Witchers, the conflict between elves and mages, and the role of humans in the kingdom of Kaedwen. Some of the best quotes in the film capture the struggles that the individual characters face within the context of the larger conflicts and hardships going on in the world around them.

10 “Only Way People Like Us Survive Is To Dream Of Ourselves As Something Else.” – Illyana

Vesemir and Illyana didn’t have the easiest lives growing up, but they did have each other. They would often play or take walks and talk about their dreams of a better life. One of Illyana’s biggest dreams is to simply own a house by a lake and live out the rest of her days quietly and peacefully with Vesemir.

Illyana’s dream is her main source of comfort when she has to endure the abuse from her masters. She yearns for escape but is unsure if that’s even possible. Illyana uses her words and her knowledge to show her own bravery, even when she’s working to fulfill the dreams of others and never her own.

9 “What’s time anyway?” “Everything.” – Vesemir & Illyana

In one of the most moving moments in the film, Vesemir meets Illyana (now Lady Illyana Zerbst) after years of not seeing her. She’s come to his rescue after defending him from the mage, Tetra Gilcrest, and the king. Since Vesemir ages much slower as a witcher compared to the human, Illyana, there’s a stark age difference and it shows in their physical appearance.

Vesemir doesn’t value time as much as Illyana does, since he has plenty of it as a witcher. This line encapsulates not just the difference in their life spans, but all the things they could have become and everything they should’ve built together if Vesemir never left. They’re one of the best couples in the Witcher franchise with the most tragic story.

8 “Fear and ignorance are good business.” – Deglan

After Deglan slays a mahr and gets paid by Vesemir’s master, he asks the boy how much he thinks he got paid for that easy job. He throws a few coins on the ground for Vesemir’s service, which is more than enough to convince the kid to become a witcher and escape poverty.

The Witchers’ business model, at least according to Deglan, is built entirely on humans’ fear of monsters, giving them no other choice but to hire the killers. Ignorance is the more important aspect, as without the knowledge needed to slay monsters, people become entirely dependent on Witchers.

7 “Tend to that filth and I’ll tend to mine.” – Vesemir

Following an encounter with the elven mahr hybrid Kitsu, Vesemir and Tetra track her steps that lead to an abandoned elven school. It’s revealed through their conversation that it was wrecked during one of Tetra’s “cleanses” with other mages. Here, they find the elf Filavandrel, along with the corpses of other elves Kitsu was experimenting on.

Vesemir protects a mutated elf that they find in the wreckage, allowing Filavandrel to escape with her. When Tetra mocks him for his newfound morals, he quickly retorts with the mage’s “filth” scattered all around them. The mages are far from the fair and powerful beings Tetra portrays them to be. They have driven the elves to the brink of extinction, tirelessly hunting them down for years simply because they think the elves are inferior beings.

6 “Truth is no illusion. There’s no getting away from it.” – Kitsu

During Vesemir’s challenging faceoff against Tetra, Kitsu traps him in an illusion. The protagonist can’t tell what’s real, as Kitsu conjures scenes of him and Illyana living a happy life by a lake, just like they always wanted. When Vesemir attempts to escape, Kitsu shows just how powerful she can be. She starts speaking through Illyana and turns the entire illusion into a nightmare.

Kitsu would be an incredibly strong boss in The Witcher games if she ever makes an appearance in them. Her elven powers and her dark magic allow her to create believable illusions that take an immense amount of energy to sustain. Fans have hopefully not seen the last of her since she was never killed in the film.

5 “Men will always need monsters. Now, so do we.” – Deglan

This line marks the point when Deglan has gone too far, with Vesemir uncovering that the old witcher has been manufacturing monsters to pressure humans into hiring the killers. Vesemir is furious with his master, who he says he’s always looked to for guidance and protection.

Unfortunately, Deglan’s twisted version of protecting the Witchers of Kaer Morhen is exactly what leads to their downfall. The manufactured monsters are exposed by Tetra, who rallies the townspeople and a host of enemies against the Witchers. In trying to keep the Witchers’ pockets lined, Deglan played a major role in causing the deaths of nearly all of “his boys.”

4 “Make em Witchers. Make em somethin’ more. To better men.” – Deglan

The gruesome fight in Kaer Morhen is not much of a fight at all, as the Witchers are quickly killed by hordes of monsters and furious men. After the consequences of his actions dawn on Deglan, he makes one last move to try and redeem himself. He saves Vesemir from Tetra and sits against a wall as he utters his last words. With Vesemir being the last surviving witcher and Deglan’s closest friend, he passes the responsibility to his protégé.

Despite being a complicated figure, Deglan is still one of the best main characters in Nightmare of the Wolf. He did what he could to keep the Witchers going. Viewers can see the regret in his eyes as he closes them for the last time in this scene, making it one of the most heartbreaking moments in the movie.

3 “Witchers Do Not Hesitate.” – Deglan

When Vesemir asks Deglan to take him to Kaer Morhen to become a witcher, the man asks if he’s ready to leave his “blue-eyed lass” behind. He hesitates for a second, which is enough to convince Deglan that he’s not ready to leave at all.

This is a line that’s said more than once in the movie, as Deglan likely considers it one of the most important lessons Witchers should remember. When they’re out in the forests or caves hunting down monsters, a split second of hesitation could lead to their death.

2 “There’ll always be another monster, Geralt.” – Vesemir

The most important revelation in the film happens at the end when Vesemir asks the boys to decide whether they want to be Witchers or not. When one of the kids comments about how the people hate them, Vesemir retorts by saying there will always be another monster and reveals that this boy is actually the future Geralt of Rivia.

Aside from revealing the main character in The Witcher series’ name, Vesemir refers to two things with this line. First, that there will be new monsters for the humans to fear, forcing them to once again rely on the Witchers. The second meaning may be that some other race will be considered monsters in the future, as the film has shown that hatred can shift quickly and irrationally from one group to another.

1 “Because you’re different and killing is easier than tolerating.” Illyana

With an angry mob outside Kaer Morhen’s gates, Vesemir remarks that maybe Tetra will listen to reason and back down. This is quickly shot down by Illyana, who is all too familiar with the mage’s rage against the Witchers, as well as the general nature of the hateful humans.

The film shows how Witchers are viewed as con artists and lowlife mutants. This discrimination against them is highlighted even more when hundreds of people march towards their base and, along with monsters, murder every last witcher they can find.
