Kalis/Netflix series

Kalis was a queen of Lyria.

Targeted by the King
Queen Kalis and her newborn baby girl were escorted across the countryside by Yennefer. She was being taken to the castle in a carriage guarded by the king of Lyria's soldiers. Many feared for Queen Kalis as she had yet to produce a boy to inherit the throne from the king. Kalis envies Yennefer’s life as a king’s mage, as people respected Yennefer for what she was. However, Yennefer gave up everything to get her seat at court, and in return, she’s spent the last three miserable decades cleaning up political debacles. Kalis retorted that Yennefer made the right choice, until suddenly the horse carriage came under attack. Yennefer and Queen Kalis exited the carriage to find all but one of the guards dead, having been killed by an assassin and a koshchey. Yennefer opened a portal for Kalis, the guard, and herself to escape through.

They’ve portalled to a desert, and Yennefer was fairly certain the assassin was paid to kill Queen Kalis as she’d repeatedly failed to provide the king a male heir. The assassin then tracked them to the desert, and while Yennefer and Kalis managed to escape through a portal, the guard was killed in the process. They emerged from this portal in an undetermined town, where Yennefer suspected that Kalis was being tracked through something the king gave her. The assassin naturally found them again, and his koshchey lunged at Yennefer. She slowed it down long enough for Queen Kalis, the child, and herself to escape through another portal to a mountain top, where Yennefer abandoned the queen and her child after Kalis blamed her for not predicting the attack. Kalis offered her child up to the man in exchange for her life, but he simply killed Kalis.
