It's Time To Talk About That Fringilla Scene In The Witcher Season 2

In episode 7, "Voleth Meir," the elves have finished celebrating the birth of the first elf in decades, and are reluctant to honor their agreement to fight alongside Nilfgaard. This causes some of the generals to doubt Fringilla, and they believe that the Emperor will behead the sorceress. However, Fringilla has different plans and executes a cunning, heartless, and savage attack on her would-be detractors during dinner. She paralyzes them with a blend of nightshade, and then systematically kills each one of them with murderous precision.

Fans were shocked, and took to Reddit to discuss the jaw-dropping scene. Reddit user MambyPamby8 said, "Fringilla killing those soldiers. Holy **** I flinched when I saw that. That eyeball scene made me physically cringe and let out a Yelp. Great scene. So brutal but somehow so calm. Like she barely batted an eyelid."

Redditor jewelsandbones replied, "Really loved Fringilla's ruthlessness this episode, and yikes about the baby. First time I gave a **** about her in the entire series so far. The character and actress hasn't been working for me, but that was cold blooded." It seemed that most fans of the show were impressed, but Reddit user BotanicFurry was not keen at the timing of it all, while Reddit user GosuDosu stated, "This bugged the heck out of me. I understand they're trying to make a reference to Gaunter O'Dimm from the game (100% with the utensil thru the eye), but it's stupid as heck to say 'I've poisoned you with nightshade, how do you like that paralysis' when literally all of the people sat at the table freeze completely at the EXACT SAME TIME." Considering the shocking twist at the end of Season 2, we haven't seen the end of Fringilla quite yet.
