Cahir Mawr Dyffryn aep Ceallach/Netflix series

Cahir is a knight for the Nilfgaardian Empire in search of Princess Ciri.

Cintra Invasion
Cahir leads the Nilfgaardian army in battle against Queen Calanthe, King Eist, and Cintran army in a field just outside Cintra. Queen Calanthe and King Eist defend Cintra from the Nilfgaardian invaders, as opposed to waiting for aid from their fleet of ships that was delayed by a storm. The Nilfgaardians’ sheer force in numbers allow them to overwhelm the Cintran army, and after King Eist is killed in battle from an arrow in the eye, fired by Cahir, Queen Calanthe is forced to retreat.

Nilfgaard have made their way to the city, and now Cintra is under attack. They eventually make it inside and begin slaughtering the people within Cintra’s walls. Cahir spots Princess Ciri as she’s being escorted out of Cintra on horseback. As Ciri and Sir Lazlo attempt to flee the city on horseback, Lazlo is killed with an arrow by Cahir, pulling Ciri off the horse and onto the ground. Ciri watches from the back of Cahir’s horse as Cintra burns. She screams, releasing a powerful magical pulse that frightens the horse and causes it to knock them both onto the ground. Ciri screams several more times, releasing energy so powerful that a stone monolith collapses and creates a chasm in the ground itself, allowing Ciri to escape.

Searching for Princess Ciri
Cahir and his men invade a Cintran refugee camp in the late hours of the night, slaughtering everyone in their path, in search of Ciri, who manages to escape unseen.

Conquering Cintra
After conquering Cintra, Cahir and Fringilla search for Queen Calanthe’s body. They find her on the ground, buried underneath the snow. One of Fringilla’s comrades slices a piece out of Calanthe’s arm and eats her flesh. Fringilla then guts him and is able to determine that Ciri is in Brokilon forest. One of his men suggests sending soldiers in to take Ciri, however, Cahir knows that armies are not the way into Brokilon forest.

Retrieving Ciri from Brokilon Forest
Cahir seeks out the help of a doppler in order to retrieve Princess Ciri from Brokilon forest. Cahir takes him to Mousesack, who they’ve captured. Cahir orders the doppler to take on his appearance. Cahir releases Mousesack from his chains only for the doppler to tackle him to the ground and shape shift into him, before stabbing Mousesack with a knife. After killing him, Cahir demands that Ciri is brought to him alive.
