As a Pole, I can help out with the SZ CZ confusion. SZ = sh. CZ = ch. SZCZ = shch. Soieszczka makes absolutely no sense in western Slavic names, we don't even use the conjugation of "oie" in any Polish words/surnames. But maybe you mistranslated it, and it sounds very similar to "wieszczka" ("w" instead of "so"), which would mean "prophetess" So maybe it's Hanna Wieszczka Trebinska -> Hanna Prophetess Trebinska

i thought about wieszczka as well! i wonder is it's just mistranscription, bcos that would fit very well. but yeah, the "szczka" part sounds actually legit, it's the "soie" that doesn't sound particularly polish. or maybe it's sobieszczka, that could be a family name too. it would be hanna sobieszczka-trebińska then. (i love ppl being confused by our usage of z, it's like a superpower)

XLetalis gives us gifts all year. The Witcher is a gift that keeps on giving. Today is a bonus. Thank you, xLetalis.

Incubi make an appearance in the standalone gwent, there is a card in the monster faction, and the artwork is just about what you'd think it would be, basically a male version of a succubus.

You probably won’t see this comment, but I have been binging your channel (it’s one of my favorites) while my newborn son is in intensive care. It has been an emotional and stressful few days, but I listen to your videos when I need to breathe for a moment, and they have been a wonderful and much-needed anchor. So thank you for sharing your passion with us. ❤

Merry Christmas Big Man, thanks for the glorious witcher content for all these years...they really go me into the books and made the series one of my all time favourite stories.

Letalis, I have severe OCD among many other problems, but my need to see every bit of dialogue and every outcome possible is time consuming and can be stressful. People like you indirectly help so much, because we get to see it all (or almost!) and it's so very entertaining and your voice is so nice to listen to. Thanks for the content, it's always a good time. Plus it's good being humbled in this category, reminds me I cannot find everything alone.

Incubus might be a play on words in this case. In latin "incubus" can also be a malign spirit who "sits on you" while you sleep, giving you nightmares. "Nightmare" comes from "night" + "mære", the latter being an old english word for "incubus". I don't know where this started exactly, maybe with the painting "The Nightmare" by Henry Fuseli (1781) or the folklore that inspired it, but the fact that mære sounds like mare-a female horse-led people to associate hellish horses with nightmares, despite mære itself not having anything to do with horses.

The Roach quest was the most exciting quest I'd ever stumbled upon. I had no idea it existed and was disappointed the talking didn't last the rest of the game. (Edit - Why did I grammar edit? I lost my xLetalis love!)

Love you man! The fact that you still post about witcher 3 details is a testiment to the greatness of this game

That detail with the salt is mind blowing. These are people seriously dedicated to their craft. Great video as ever, sir. Merry Christmas and I hope the "unfortunate circumstances" you mentioned are improving.

I actually looked this up a while ago on your channel, thank you.

I really love that you're still uploading witcher content. Ive been obsessed with the game for years now and thanks to you I know so much - I revisit your videos pretty often, they never bore me, theyre so ineresting and well made. The incredible work you put in it too - from as i said just the productiom, nice and really pleasant to listen to commentary, content, visuals - really everything. My boyfriend is now playing it for the first time (finally) and i just throw random factcs here and there and he loves it :D So really thank you for sharing your love with the game with all of us

Merry Christmas xLetalis! Even during holidays, you're still uploading Witcher 3 details, love that

In Polish version of the game Roach (Płotka) is voiced by a celebrity known for his deep voice. He is a radio DJ and an actor and comedian Wojciech Mann. It's kind of a joke that repeats itself - he was voicing some animated characters in movies (for example Shrek 2) and it was allways a female character (Płotka in Polish is also feminine).

I appreciate the darkest dungeon reference...my worlds are colliding....

1:14 God damn, I could just keep listening to this non-stop!!! 🤣🤣🤣 Also I believe, another 5 years may pass and still there would be more unsolved mysteries and hidden content in Witcher 3. Thank you for this material though xLetalis. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! 🎅🎄🎆

@xLetalis

The Incubus part made me think of the succubus equivalent that we have in Nordic folklore: In Nordic folklore the are called Mara. I am pretty sure it's from that the English word Nightmare comes from. In Swedish it's Mardröm(dream from a Mara). And now you might conclude why the Psilocybe is called Mardroeme on Skellige. The Mara can enter the room through the smallest of holes so no room is safe. But because of the mara suffers from obsessive thoughts you can fill a psalmbook with cowhairs and put it in the window or litter the floor with flax seed, then she has to count the hair/seeds and wont be able to do you any harm. Sometimes she attacks animals, especially horses. That you can notice if the horse is exhausted and foaming in the morning. you might notice fleted mar-braids in the horses mane as well. Luckily you can scare the Mara away from the animals with a dead bird of prey or a carv in a hexagram(markors(Mar-cross)) on the outside of the animals boxes. None knows for sure where the Maras comes from, some think they are unrestful spirits of unmarried women who have died and looking for closeness and warmth from living beings. Others think they are actual women who are cursed. The curse is then said to come from mothers who have tried to lessen their birthing pains using black magic and climbing through the amniotic membrane of a foal. This way the offspring gets cursed, if it's a girl she will become a Mara and if a boy he will become a Werewolf. The curse of the Mara can be broken if someone tells her that she is a Mara right after she has transferred back into a normal human again in the morning. But one needs to be careful, if the transformation is not fully complete the woman can end up lacking a toe or a finger.

Great video man. The Witcher 3 is my favorite game of all time but BG3 has recently become a close second. It's pretty daunting getting into it being a total D&D noob but it's totally worth it. All that bring said i would be very interested if you made videos on BG3 as well in the future ♥️

Merry Christmas xletalis❤

Great video as always! Happy holidays to you and your loved ones!

"I will now do what im often accused of in my videos" Selling Ciri? Yes, you are accused of this rather often - starting to think those rumors might hold water.

Merry Christmas to you & your family! Thanks for another cool video. I finished watching your playthrough of Dragon Age: Origins the other day. That would be a fun franchise to revisit in the New Year…if the next game ever comes out!

The name is absolutely polish-based (native here), and yes, we have this "szcz" construct in our language, and use it quite often.

I ended the game 4 times and I ALWAYS do it the same, I just can't bring myself to do something that would go against my heart. The only thing I changed was either romancing Triss or Yennefer. Funnily enough, in my first playthrough I romanced them both and you how that ended - but it was the fault of other games before, where I expected there will be a time to choose one or the other... So I ended up romancing Road/Triss/Yen/Yen. And I think Yen is the right choice. But if I really could, I would end up with Shani, I just adore her and her sweet behavior

What I think is that "Hanna Trebińska" is translated good. The part "so ieszczka" doesn't make any sense in Polish, but if instead of "so" there was a letter "w" then it would all make sense. "Wieszczka" is an old Polish word that means "seeress, soothsayer or prophetess" basically someone that tells prophecies. So all of this would be "Hanna Trebińska Seeress"

Happy holidays xLetalis! Hope you and your family have a great time!

I've owned Witcher 1, 2 & 3 for a very long time but somehow I still haven't gotten around to playing any of them. I have serious issues with making bad choices in games and since making the wrong choice or doing quests in the wrong order can destroy the playthrough I'm not sure if I'll ever be able to play them. XLetalis I have truly loved learning about these games through your videos. I might not get to play them but I have come to love them thanks to you. Merry Christmas friend.

Wieszczka is a type of Arabian thoroughbred (horse) but also means "prophet". Makes sense that ist a wordplay since the quest is about Roach and a mystic... Maybe "So" is a proto-slavic way of pronouncing "W" which gives the word "Wieszczka"?

Merry Christmas you glorious scholar 🤣🤣🎉🎉 wish you well, take care

i played the game 3 times and i dont think i have ever played this quest sems like its time for another one

This game is a masterpiece. When I finish the game I feel so empty and hollow inside that I wish there was like 10 DLC. 😢

A little reference I've came across, on the bridge down from temple Isle (above dykstras bathhouse) you can find the closed down shop of Percival schuttenbach, there's a poster beside the door that reference his parrot. It's after the mages escape and witch-hunts of non humans kick off

Wow funny coincidence I'm playing blood and wine for the first time and just did this quest last night and can't stop thinking about the conversation with roach when he mentions the whistles and he appears from out of nowhere

Is this our Christmas present?

Huh, didn't realize the line of salt, and didn't know all animals speak in that New Game Plus when save is made at this quest's point. Thanks for another Witcher video. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!

Glad I knew all of these after spending 5 playthroughs doing it differently

The only instance of Incubus in the Witcher universe I know is the Gwent card game, where it's a monster card.

SZ makes the "sh" sound as in "show" and CZ makes the "ch" sound like in challenge. And it definitely feels like a Polish name.
