How did Tissaia de Vries die in The Witcher Season 3?

The character Tissaia de Vries, played by MyAnna Buring, is a sorceress and a part of the Chapter of the Gift and the Art in the Netflix series “The Witcher.” At the magical academy Aretuza, she serves as rectoress. Tissaia’s main responsibility at Aretuza is to find young girls who exhibit magical prowess and teach them to become expert sorceresses.

In the series, Tissaia has a big impact on Yennefer (Anya Chalotra), the main character. After Yennefer unintentionally portals to Aretuza, she recruits the disfigured Yennefer from her homeland of Vengerberg. Yennefer is bought by Tissaia from her abusive father against her mother’s protests. Yennefer’s metamorphosis and training at Aretuza are challenging, and she deals with a number of obstacles with Tissaia’s help.

Tissaia has remained a difficult character throughout the series, divided between her obligations as a mentor and the expectations of the Chapter of the Gift and the Art. She fights alongside other mages to protect the Northern Kingdoms against the Nilfgaardian invasion during the Battle of Sodden Hill, where she plays a crucial role.

The character of Tissaia changes, and she has a complicated bond with Yennefer, who frequently battles her feelings and her use of authority. Tissaia really cares about Yennefer’s welfare despite their disagreements and makes an effort to lead her along the road of accountability and mastery over her power.

Tissaia devotes herself to her responsibilities as a sorceress and a leader in the magical world throughout the entire series. She is a crucial and important character in “The Witcher.” Several characters died in The Witcher season 3, volume 2, but Tissaia de Vries’s passing, played by MyAnna Buring, was one of the most notable.  How & Why did Tissaia de Vries die in The Witcher Season 3? Let’s Investigate.

How did Tissaia de Vries die in The Witcher Season 3?

Tissaia’s life took a catastrophic turn over the season as a result of Vilgefortz, her lover, manipulating her and planning many disasters and events that occurred in season 3. The academy finally fell in spite of her efforts to protect Aretuza from the Scoia’tael, which increased her sense of failure and shame.

Tissaia made the decision to commit suicide after Aretuza’s demise because she was depressed about the loss and felt guilty for the terrible things that had happened. She sadly slit her wrists and killed herself. She wrote Yennefer and others a note before leaving, outlining the circumstances surrounding her heartbreaking and desperate decision.

Henry Cavill‘s character Geralt, who is the series’ protagonist, made it through his most recent escapades in season three of The Witcher. Geralt appears to have overcome the hurdles he experienced in the third season, and Henry Cavill is still playing the character at this stage in the series, despite the possibility that the show’s writers would change and challenge him in the future.
