Coś się kończy, coś się zaczyna (English: Something Ends, Something Begins) is a non-canon humorous story about Geralt and Yennefer's wedding written as a wedding gift for Paulina Braiter and Paweł Ziemkiewicz, by Andrzej Sapkowski, in the similarly titled collection of short stories.
The wedding takes place at the ruined castle of Rozrog, in Schwemmland. Dandelion has been charged with sending out the invitations, but as usual, managed to misplace the list before even reading it, the result being quite the collection of guests for the occasion.
