Unresolved plot lines in The Witcher

the-witcher

I recently completed The Witcher, and found myself wondering about some of the plot lines that didn't seem to be resolved. I'm wondering if this is because of the choices I made (meaning they were addressed if I made different choices), or they were left to be addressed in The Witcher 2, or are they just meant to be open-ended?

Some examples I can think of

  • What happened to Alvin after he teleported away from Murky Waters? Is there a connection between his amulet and the one that the Grand Master of the Order of the Rose was wearing?
  • Who was Triss talking to at the beginning of Chapter 3, and what was the relevance of their conversation?

Update: The Alvin situation is covered, anyone have more info about Triss's "secret" conversation?

Best Answer

It's heavily implied that Alvin IS Jacques de Aldersberg, the Grand Master of the Order of the Rose. If you pay attention, Jacques will tell you all the stuff that you tell Alvin.
