The Path

The path is a term witchers use to describe traveling the various parts of the world hunting down monsters. Witchers travel the continent looking for contracts to fulfill, whether it's trudging swamps for a zeugal, or guarding a person of interest. Towards the onset of winter, witchers reconvene at their respective keeps to wait out the cold season. Though it's unknown if all witchers reconvene at their respective keeps since only the School of the Wolf has been known to do so. As described in Witcher 3, they'll wait out the winter and once spring comes along their back out plying their trade. Witchers are lone hunters but on occasion have been known to partner up on a contract and split the reward.
