omg, you guys, i just learned the most random thing about the witcher series - geralt names all his horses roach, and it's actually kinda adorable why. apparently, it's not because of the bug, but because of a thing that happens in one of the books.



so, i was reading about this new book in the series, crossroads of ravens, and it's actually a pretty early story in the timeline. it's about geralt when he's just starting out, and it's got all these fun little encounters and backstory bits that are super interesting if you're a fan of the games. one of the coolest things i found out is how geralt got the whole "roach" thing started - it's because of a horse breeder who insults his choice of horse, calling it a "little roach" like a type of fish.



i love how this little detail just adds to the whole witcher lore, you know? it's like, even though the games are super popular, the books can still drop these little bombs that change how we think about the characters. and it's not just some boring old fact, either - it's actually a pretty funny story. geralt just likes the name so much that he decides to use it for all his horses from then on, which is just so geralt.



anyway, if you're a fan of the witcher series, you should totally check out the books - they're really great, and they add a whole new layer to the games. plus, they're not just about the big plot points, but also about the little character moments that make the series so lovable. and if you're not sure where to start, don't worry - there are tons of resources out there toRead more: Full article on www.pcgamer.com
