It's written as a wedding gift, a non-canon story by the author himself, an alternative "happily-ever-after" if you will. If we pay attention, we will see certain aspects could make this one of the tales about Geralt and Ciri written in the book universe, as most of them had the "final battle" loacation as Rhys-Rhun Castle instead of the true location, Stygga, which was recorded in the Black Book of Ellander. This story is not exactly what happened, but then again, these all are just stories, and the author has been very meta about it in the last book.
