His singular obsession is the capture of Ciri, whose Elder Blood grants her the power to traverse worlds at will. In The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, Eredin wants her powers to save his homeworld from a magical force known as the White Frost, which moves between the worlds and turns them into frozen wastelands.
