I let her die in my first play through because I was playing more as myself in character of this cruel, callous world. However on the 2nd play, I'm doing this is a "Geral canon" playstyle where I base most actions on what Geralt would have chosen to do. That being said, I let her live.

She openly says that she in no way meant for harm to come to her sister, she was merely jealous, in love with her sister's husband and though that if she saw that he was a monster she would skip town, leaving the man for her. When things happened, she paniced, the wife didn't run as she should have, perhaps even thinking he wouldn't harm her or just the shock of it all, and her death was a mistake.

Even though the sister is a total POS that is ultimateliy responsible for her sister's death, it wasn't intentional or planned.

However, the werewolf was going to straight up murder this woman on purpose because of her stupid mistake that costs the life of his wife. While I sympathized with his anger, and understand that ANYONE would be angry in this situation, since the woman didn't set out to kill anyone, she was innocent. I would have let the werewolf go as well, since he had a cabin to escape too and he said himself that he never killed people. Unfortunately, he stated he intended to kill her, combined with him being a monster etc. that left Geralt no choice but to say "No, not going to let you kill her." This made the wolf's dead unable to avoid.

So yeah, I may detest what the sister did, and her actions were the result of a jealous love...but she never intended to kill anyone, and she didn't technically kill anyone, the werewolf did by mistake and was going to do it again but this time on purpose. So I took out the werewolf, and now the sister is sitting alone in hunter's cabin in the woods, crying her eyes out, with no sister and no man. Letting her live with the guilt of how her actions and jealousy ultimately led to the death of everyone she loved is the best punishment for her. It felt the most "Geralt".
