The Calm Before the Storm is a main quest played as Ciri. It plays while Craven's revived body tells Geralt and Yennefer about Ciri's stay on Hindarsfjall. Ciri appeared out of thin air, hurt and exhausted, carried by a masked companion. Craven, whose true name is Skjall, took her home, and his family cared for her. Ciri finally had a moment of peace, until the Wild Hunt caught her scent.

Notes
- At Drowned Dead Rock, the masked companion puts Ciri to sleep with a spell and sails off with her into the fog.
- The Wild Hunt leaves Skjall for dead. He wakes on the beach next to a boat that now carries the ugliest man in the world. This leads into Ugly Baby.
