While Freya Allen might know how The Witcher will end, it remains to be seen how closely the conclusion will fit with the works of Andrzej Sapkowski. Redanian Intelligence notes that showrunner Lauren Hissrich said in 2020 that the show's ending will follow the books, and won't expand beyond that. It's possible plans changed over the last four years, but if that's still correct, the series could end on a note similar to the conclusion of The Lady of the Lake. That means we can also infer that material from the video games will not be covered. However, it's not like the show is known for being extremely faithful to the source material, and there's really no way of knowing what will happen.
The last few years have been frustrating for fans of the series, particularly with series star Henry Cavill leaving at the end of Season 3. There still hasn't been any kind of explanation provided for that departure, but there has been a metric ton of speculation; many fans think that Cavill was frustrated by the show's lack of faithfulness to the source material. Season 4 and Season 5 will see the role of Geralt filled by actor Liam Hemsworth, and there's still a lot of concern from fans about how he'll serve in the role. Of course, that could change when we get to see more of the actor actually playing Geralt.
