Angoulême was a fair-haired girl who bore a striking resemblance to Ciri and hailed from a wealthy Cintran family. Due to the misfortune of being an illegitimate child, she was sent to live with distant relatives. She eventually completely abandoned her family and set out to forge a life for herself. This path ultimately led her to join the infamous Nightingale gang.
Captured after stealing from Homer Straggen, Angoulême was condemned by Nilfgaardian governor Fulko Artevelde. She cooperated as a crown witness but was released into Geralt's custody as a condition for him hunting the Nightingale gang. Joining the Witcher's company to find Ciri, the sharp-tongued girl, fond of calling men "uncle," intended to open a brothel. Tragically, she died defending Ciri at Stygga Castle from a spear wound.
As season 4 introduces new characters, final season of The Witcher will deliver the long-awaited payoff, adapting the momentous events that conclude the celebrated book series.
What to expect from Season 5 of The Witcher
The final Season 5 is expected to adapt the concluding books, The Tower of the Swallow and The Lady of the Lake, bringing the core narratives to a dramatic close. Geralt, leading his newly formed Hansa fellowship (including Jaskier, Milva, Regis, and Cahir), will relentlessly hunt for Ciri. This desperate journey will feature epic battles, emotional sacrifices (like Angoulême’s tragic fate), and the White Wolf's final, devastating confrontation with the villainous mage, Vilgefortz.

The season's climax will be the long-awaited reunion of Geralt, Ciri, and Yennefer, which did not happen in season 4, leading to a fateful and emotional conclusion for the entire saga.
