Toussaint - Part 1: History and Geography - Witcher Lore

Toussaint is the main setting for the blood and wine DLC of the Witcher 3, however through out the region there are hints and clues that there might be a deeper history behind the fairytale that is Toussaint.

If you have suggestions for other characters or places leave it in the comments, I read every comment i get and will reply if asked for. (It's easily manageable since I get almost no comments)

Sources used in these video include gwent card art, the witcher Wiki, Witcher gameplay, information from the books and my own speculation.
Music used is from the witcher games.

The Witcher games are truely an amazing experience, I can't wait till CD Project Red continues their games in this world.
Let's hope the witcher 4 or Witcher tales 2 won't take too long to be released.

I upload Witcher lore videos at least twice a week, till the next video! However next week will only have one video, but it will be a longer one.

Coming in 5 years later, to say that, as a french speaker, your pronunciation is basically perfect :)

Even if you play this game "as intended", I found it hard to keep up with all that thrown at you in the new area. The maps and books help. But in the quests, characters and NPC conversations, I'm missing a whole lot of connections and motivations that are heavily based on the history.

Lovely lovely commentary my friend. Exquisite.

Is it possible that Sapkowski's Toussaint/Beauclair is a reference to or took inspiration from Tolkien's Dorwinion?
