Shortly after arriving in Skellige Geralt received a letter from his old friend, the jarl Crach an Craite, lord of Kaer Trolde castle. It turned out the witcher was not the only one searching for lost loved ones. Crach's son, Hjalmar, whose famed courage pushed him to feats only a madman would dare, had disappeared after sailing off to the island of Undvik to prove his strength against the Ice Giant. This beast had slept for centuries in the frozen bowels of the island, forgotten to men - until one day he awoke and began to murder and destroy. Hjalmar wanted to defeat the Giant and win back the island for the few left alive who had once called it home - at the same time winning everlasting fame for himself. Yet something must not have gone as the young an Craite had planned, for weeks had passed since his departure and he still had not returned. It became clear that someone would have to face the danger lurking on Undvik and survive, returning to tell Crach of the fate of his first-born son. And though the warriors of Skellige are famed for their courage and skill in battle, Crach knew there was only one man who stood a chance against such a monster - Geralt of Rivia.
