SHOTA:
No. This is terrible.

What do you see, Shota?

The future.

In three days' time,

the Seeker will die.

[***]

COLM:
in the next shipment.rriving

But I've made special
arrangements

to have the boots
delivered tomorrow.

Anything to help
the D'Haran cause.

Excellent service,
as always.

Well, you know how much
I appreciate all the business

you send my way, commander.

Ready the horses.

[DOOR CLOSES]

Just a little something
to say thanks.

You're too kind.

Hm.

We'll drink it in celebration
of your son's wedding.

[DOGS BARKING]

[DOOR LOCKS]

[KEYS RATTLE]

[GRUNTING]

[***]

Kahlan.

Thank the Spirits.
I thought you were dead.

Ha-ha! I almost was.

A few times.

[***]

KAHLAN:
business has been good.

A little too good,
I'm afraid.

I have more customers now
than ever.

Unfortunately,
they're all D'Harans.

Imagine their surprise
if they found out

all the money
they were giving you

was being funneled right back
into the resistance.

Well, some of it
finds its way

back into Commander Morcant's
pockets.

You pay him
for information?
No, no.

The bribes simply ensure
repeat business.

His big mouth does the rest.

Hopefully your investment
will pay off.

We need some of that
information.

We've learned from an informant

that Darken Rahl
is massing troops

at a place not far from here.

It's called Kelabra.

Most only speak that name
in a whisper,

if they speak it at all.

It was once the most opulent
city in the Midlands.

Until an invading army
lay siege to it.

Rather than surrender,

the Kelabran people
killed themselves.

Their last dying act
was to curse anyone

that entered the city walls.

One year to the day,
Mount Mariah erupted,

burying the invaders beneath
in a rain of molten rock,

and destroyed all trace
of that once glorious city.

What would the D'Harans
want with it?

I don't know.
It's a forsaken wasteland.

Tomorrow I'll pay
Commander Morcant a visit.

If I know the commander,

he won't be able to keep
his mouth shut about it.

Gryff, this is Kahlan

and her friends
Zedd and Richard.

The first true Seeker
in a thousand years.

It's an honor.

The Sword of Truth.

So it is true
about the nick on the hilt.

The last true Seeker,
Kieran,

got it in
the Battle of Barrier Peaks.

I always wondered
where it came from.

COLM:
Since Gryff's been able to read,

he's been quite the student
of Seeker lore.

So, what brings you
to town?

I can't imagine
you're here for the wedding.

COLM:
Ah, yes, indeed.

My son's getting married.

Congratulations, Gryff.

Of all the magic in the world,
none is more powerful than love.

[***]

[BOTH GRUNTING]

Ha-ha. Don't tell me you learned
to fight like this

from your Seeker books.
[LAUGHS]

My father had me trained by
the best swordsmen in the area.

Maybe I could
come with you.

Help you fight the D'Harans.

What would your bride
think about that?

Bronwyn?

Couldn't really tell you.

I barely know her.

[BOTH GRUNT]

How's that?

It's an arranged marriage.

[BOTH GRUNTING]

[PANTING]

Bronwyn's family has their name,
but not much else.

The union will restore
her family's wealth

and my father will have
her family's influence

to strengthen
the resistance.

[GRUNTING]

[SIGHS]

But I'd rather
be fighting Darken Rahl

than marrying a girl
I hardly know.

You know,
part of me envies you.

[SCOFFS]

You get to settle down,

get married,
raise a family.

That's something
I may never get to do.

But you have Kahlan,
don't you?

Yeah, but we're not...

Oh, I thought
maybe you were.

Don't you need to be getting
ready for your wedding?

Bronwyn's a lucky girl.

And you'll make
a fine husband.

[***]

You must not go to Kelabra.

How did you know--?

In two days' time,

the Seeker will die at Kelabra.

This I have seen in a vision.

A vision?

Of one possible future.

One you can change if you stay
away from that dreaded place.

Who are you?

That matters not.

You will know
what I say is true

when you set eyes
upon the eagle.

Richard.

[***]

[BIRDS CAWING]

[***]

COLM:
Whatever they have planned
at Kelabra, it's big.

They've been shipping in barrels
of Dragon's Breath,

a highly explosive ore.

They must be arming
for an attack.

But on what?
They already control the region.

I couldn't find out exactly
what they've been planning,

but Darken Rahl's
appointed someone

to oversee the operation.

A man called Nass.

Demmin Nass?

COLM:
You know him?

ZEDD:
Only by reputation.

Nass is Darken Rahl's
most trusted commander.

He's a butcher.

A ruthless enforcer.

If he's dispatching
his right-hand man to Kelabra,

I hate to think
what Rahl is plotting.

[SIGHS]

Maybe this is the chance
we've been waiting for.

I mean, we can never find
Darken Rahl

because he's always
changing his location.

But if this Demmin Nass
is his most trusted commander,

wouldn't he know
where he is?

If we can infiltrate
the encampment at Kelabra

and get close to Demmin Nass...

I could confess him.

And we'd have one of Rahl's
inner circle as our ally.

And if we can find Rahl,
we can kill him.

My men are to deliver provisions
to the D'Harans.

But if you take my supply wagon
and make the delivery,

you can get inside
the encampment.

This is a map of the encampment
up at Kelabra.

I managed to steal it
while Morcant wasn't looking.

[***]

OLD CRONE:
When you set eyes
upon the eagle...

The eagle.

KAHLAN:
This woman told you

the Seeker will die
at Kelabra?

This mission is already
risky enough

without a vision
of the Seeker's death.

We need to find out how she
knows we're going to Kelabra,

otherwise we could
be walking into a trap.

Well, you better hurry.
According to Morcant,

Nass will be at the encampment
for only one day.

If we try to find this woman,

we could miss
our only chance at Nass.

We don't even know
if there's any truth

to this woman's warning.

We can't lose this opportunity.

[GRUNTING]

[GASPING]

Fool!

What troubles you, Shota?

My warning has gone unheeded.

[BELL TOLLING]

[SIGHS]

[***]

Who are you?

Someone who can give you
what you truly want.

What are you talking about?

You want a life of adventure.

You don't wanna be married.

There's nothing anyone can do
to change that.

Change?

There is much I can change.

I can change you
into the Seeker.

When others look on you,
they'll see Richard Cypher.

And when they look on Cypher,
they will see you.

How can you do that?

[CHUCKLES]

It's already done.

What are you doing?

Put down Richard's sword,
Gryff.

The Sword of Truth
is not a toy.

What's going on?

How did Gryff get his hands
on your sword, Richard?

No harm done,
but the Sword of Truth

belongs in the hands
of the Seeker.

This is insane.
It's me, Richard.

Bronwyn is a very lucky girl.

And you'll make
a fine husband.

I think we should get moving.

Hey!

Time to get married,
son.

What? I'm not your son.
I'm not Gryff.

Kahlan!

[***]

RICHARD:
I need a horse.

I need to get to Zedd and Kahlan
now, do you understand?

I understand perfectly.
[SIGHS]

I felt the same way on the day
I married your mother.

It's natural to feel nervous
on your wedding day.

No, there is nothing natural--
That's enough, Gryff!

You are getting married,
so get your saddle on straight.

Your new in-laws are here.

A fine day for a wedding.

Yes, indeed.

And no one's more excited
than Gryff.

Where is he?

[***]

[HORSES APPROACHING]

BRIGGS:
You would dishonor
my sister

by leaving her
at the wedding altar?

There's been a mistake.

The mistake is yours.

You have insulted Bronwyn

and you have insulted
our family name.

I'm not who you think--

The only thing I wanna
hear out of you

are wedding vows.

This marriage
will go ahead.

My family has too much at stake
for you ruin it.

I know your father's
little secret.

So either you come back with us
now and marry our sister,

or I'll tell the D'Harans

your father's been
helping the resistance.

So, what's it going to be?

Above you are the stars.
Below you are the stones.

As time shall pass,
remember,

like a stone
should your love be strong,

like a star
should your love be constant.

Bronwyn...

...do you bind your soul,

your mind and your body
with this man?

Yes.
And Gryff,

do you bind your soul,
your mind and your body

with this woman?

Yes.

Then as the Spirits' witness,

you are bonded in blood.

For eternity, you are now one.

[ALL APPLAUD]

[***]

[BELLS RINGING]

SAMUEL:
Now the Seeker is trapped.

[***]

SAMUEL:
You've done it, Shota.

You've changed the future.

Assemble your men.

We must make sure
that the Seeker does not try

to rejoin his friends
on their doomed mission.

ZEDD:
I'll drive the supply wagon
up to the encampment.

The D'Harans will take
the crates to the command tent.

Only there won't be provisions
inside the crates,

there'll be you two.

I'll need to get Nass alone
if I'm going to confess him.

It won't be easy
with all those soldiers.

[SIGHS]

Any ideas, Seeker?

Oh, yes.

Uh, we should...

...never do that which
your enemy will do for you.

What did you say?

It's just something the Seeker
of the Third Era used to say.

He was a shrewd tactician.

I know,
I'm just surprised you did.

I read about it
in the book Gryff gave me.

It has all the history
of Seekers past.

[CHUCKLES]

I'm glad to see you're learning
from those who came before you.

[SIGHS]

What would the Seeker
of the Third Era suggest?

Uh...

A diversion?

Good idea.

We could ignite their stockpile
of Dragon's Breath.

That would distract
the soldiers,

and following
D'Haran military protocol,

they would take Demmin Nass

to the safety
of the command tent...

Where Richard and I would be
waiting to confess him.

ZEDD:
Hm.

Let the D'Harans
do our work for us.

Perhaps one day future Seekers
will be quoting you.

[CHUCKLES]

COLM:
To my son Gryff,

and his lovely bride, Bronwyn.

To Gryff and Bronwyn.

ALL:
To Gryff and Bronwyn.

[WHISPERS]
If these things
aren't comfortable,

we can take them off.

What's wrong with you?

You know tradition
doesn't allow it.

It stays on
until morning.

After we've spent
our first night together

as man and wife?

[GLASS CLINKS]

I too would like to offer
my congratulations

to the bride and groom.

It is so wonderful

to see a union
of two souls.

A union that,
I have no doubt,

will honor Darken Rahl

and all he so nobly fights for.

Join me in raising a glass
in tribute.

To Lord Rahl.

ALL:
Lord Rahl!

[***]

[DOOR OPENS]

[INAUDIBLE WHISPERING]

I'm afraid there's some pressing
business that I must attend to.

BRIGGS:
There are a lot of things
I want to say,

but first let me start
by wishing my little sister

and her new husband

many, many children. And--

We should get started
on that right away.

[ALL LAUGH]

I didn't realize
you were so eager.

Oh, I am. Believe me.

Uh, shall we?

[ALL APPLAUD]

[***]

[SECURES LATCH]

I know this is gonna be really
hard for you to believe,

but I'm not who
you think I am.

My name is Richard Cypher.

I'm the Seeker.

Right, and I'm the Confessor.

I'm telling you
the truth.

I don't know if it's a spell
or some enchantment,

but whatever it is,
when people look at me,

they think I'm Gryff.
Maybe that's because

you are Gryff.

No, I'm the Seeker.

Now, it seems that you don't
have a love for Darken Rahl,

so will you please help me
get out of here

so I can get to Kelabra
and help fight the D'Harans?

I can't believe this.

Do you actually think
I wanted to marry you?

Then why did you?

This was all
my brothers' idea.

After our parents died,

they expect this marriage
to save the family's future,

even if it means
ruining mine.

[SIGHS]

I didn't know.
I'm-- I'm sorry.

You're sorry?

I thought getting married

would at least mean I'd get
out of my brother's house.

[SIGHS]

That was before I knew I'd be
locked to an insane person.

God...

[SOBS]

[***]

[KAHLAN SIGHS]

Can't sleep?

I'm worrying about tomorrow.

I don't want anything
to happen to you.

How can anything
happen to me?

I have
the Sword of Truth.

And I have you.

[SIGHS]

I'm afraid
that might not be enough.

What is it?

To commemorate
the victory at Illya,

the Seeker of the Third Era

commissioned a magnificent dome
to be built at Aydindril.

After 40 years of carefully
placing the stones,

all that remained was removing
the last wooden support.

Would all their work crumble
to the ground,

or would it float
among the clouds?

The dome at Aydindril has stood
for thousands of years.

I think the lesson is,
if you want something to stand,

you have to risk
letting it fall.

What would the Seeker
of the Third Era

say about Confessors
that worry too much?

I'm not too sure
what he'd say.

But this Seeker

would tell you
that he'd die for you.

Richard, no.

You shouldn't say that.
I can't help it.

It's how I feel.

I can't.

We can't.

Kahlan, wait.

Richard, this can never happen.

I'm sorry.

RICHARD:
Bronwyn, you were right.

I shouldn't have pretended
to be somebody else.

But neither of us
wants this.

Well, what choice
do we have now?

We're stuck with each other.

Maybe not.

You said you wanted
to see the world, right?

Then let's go.

Right now.

When we get far enough
away from here,

we'll get this thing off
and we can go our separate ways.

This is solid gold.

You can take it and sell it
for enough money

to start whatever life
you want.

How?

Out that window.

[BOTH PANTING]

BRONWYN:
How long do you think it'll take
them to realize we're not there?

I'm not sure.
But we'll be long gone by then.

SAMUEL:
You're not going anywhere.

It's okay.

Just, uh,
don't hurt the girl.

[GRUNTS]

Drop it, Seeker.

Or the girl dies.

[RICHARD GASPS]

[GRUNTS]

[ALL GRUNTING]

[***]

[PANTING]

You all right?

That man, he called you
"Seeker."

You were telling
the truth before.

You really are him.

[***]

[RICHARD PANTING]

[RICHARD GRUNTING]

Take this.

Now, will you be all right

to get through the forest
on your own?

I'm coming with you.

It's too dangerous.

My friends are about
to attack a D'Haran encampment

with someone who's not
the Seeker.

I have to move quickly.

Then you need me.

I know a shortcut
to Kelabra.

Through the caves.

If your friends really are
in danger,

then the fastest way
for you to reach them

is for me to take you.

BRONWYN:
These caves lead to
the catacombs at Kelabra.

[PANTING]

[***]

Never thought this is where
I'd spend my honeymoon.

Well, you and I
aren't exactly married.

I know, but this is
the first time in my life

I feel like
I'm doing something important,

which is a lot better than being
the wife of a merchant's son.

Well, you don't know
the real Gryff.

You should give him
a chance.

He's more
than you think.

I would rather go fight
the D'Harans

than marry someone
I have nothing in common with.

Funny. Gryff said
the same thing about you.

What is it?

Nothing.

I don't have
to be a Confessor

to know you're not
telling the truth.

[SIGHS]

Richard almost kissed me
last night.

This is exactly what I feared
would happen.

You cannot put off telling
Richard the truth any longer.

I know.

I'm just worried
about the mission.

I don't want this
to be a distraction.

Clearly it's already
a distraction.

ZEDD:
Hyah! Hyah!

[***]

Hyah!

Hyah! Hyah!

Kahlan,

I want to apologize

for last night.

No, I should be the one
apologizing.

It's okay if you don't feel
the same way about me.

No, that's not it.

There's something I should have
told you a long time ago.

[***]

A Confessor's power
is always present.

We have to hold it in
at all times.

Is that difficult?

Yes.

Especially if I were
with someone I love.

Then the power
couldn't be controlled.

In a moment of...

...ecstasy,

it would be unleashed.

My lover's soul
would be taken.

Then he would become
a slave.

That's why we can never
be together.

You wouldn't be yourself
anymore.

And you couldn't fulfill
your destiny.

[SNIFFLES]

I'm sorry, Richard.

[***]

General Nass, it's a pleasure
to have you with us.

Pleasure is not why I'm here.

Of course.

You'll be happy to know
our plans are ahead of schedule.

Good.

Then Lord Rahl will have his
victory sooner than expected.

NASS:
The excavations are
progressing well, commander.

MORCANT:
We believe the royal vault
is just beyond the wall.

[***]

Oh! What was that?

We need to get out of here
before the cave collapses!

Come on.

[***]

[BOTH PANTING]

Jump!

[BOTH GRUNT]

[SWORDS UNSHEATHE]

[BOTH GASP]

Gryff?

You know these people?

He's, uh-- He's the son
of a local merchant.

Very loyal
to the D'Haran cause.

Or they're spies.

Lock them up.

I'll find out
who they really are.

[BRONWYN SHRIEKS]

[***]

You're supposed to be
on your honeymoon, Gryff.

What could possibly have made
you want to come here?

I'd think you should be more
concerned with how my father

will react to you
treating me this way.

He's always been
loyal to you.

Nass is determined
to question you.

There's nothing I can do.

Then I guess there's nothing
I can do, either.

When Nass questions me,

I'm going to tell him
all about the bribes

my father has been paying you.

Keep your voice down.

There is nothing
I can do.

You can help me escape.

I think we'd agree
it'd be best if I wasn't here.

[SCOFFS]

[***]

ZEDD:
Hyah!

[***]

Whoa.

MAN:
Infantry, halt.

ZEDD:
Special provisions
for Commander Morcant.

They're to be delivered
to the command tent.

[GRYFF GRUNTS]

[***]

[ALL GRUNTING]

What are you
looking for?

There has to be something here
that will tell us

what Nass is doing
at Kelabra.

Richard,
what does it say?

GRYFF:
I, uh...

I can't read this.

Of course you can.

I don't even know
what language this is.

You've read it. It's the same
as the Book of Counted Shadows.

[***]

Who are you?

[***]

The fuse is lit.

We can't go through with this.

What are you talking about?
He's not the Seeker. He's Gryff.

I think that old woman
must have done it

to try to save Richard,

to prevent her vision of the
Seeker's death from coming true.

The Seeker's death?

That's why the old woman
did this?

I'm supposed to die
in his place?

We have to abandon
the mission.

[EXPLOSION OUTSIDE]

[MEN YELLING OUTSIDE]

MAN:
We're under attack!

It's a little late for that.

[MEN YELLING]

[HORSES WHINNYING]

Get General Nass
to the command tent now!

I have to get out of here.

You can't.
Nass is on his way.

But I'm not the Seeker!

That won't matter
to Demmin Nass.

[EXPLOSIONS CONTINUE]

[PANTING]

The Seeker.

[SWORDS UNSHEATHE]
No. No, I'm not him.

Where's the commander?

[ALL GRUNTING]

[GROANS]

MAN:
Commander!

The tunnels are collapsing.

[EXPLOSIONS CONTINUE]

We have to move now.

Come on.

[***]

[***]

It appears
the old woman's spell

lasted just long enough
to revert her vision

of your death.

It's been a long time since
I've seen magic that powerful.

Listen, what you told me
last night,

I know it was meant
for Richard, but...

After worrying all this time,
I told the wrong person.

You should tell Richard.

This is for you.

It tells the history
of Seekers past.

I just wanted to say
I'm sorry

for going along with
the old woman's plans.

Now I know there's more
to being the Seeker

than wielding
a magic sword.

I guess I just wanted
to make a difference.

You don't have to be the Seeker
to do that.

I heard you got married.

It was a lovely ceremony.

I just had to do
what I had to

to get back
to you and Zedd.

I'm glad you did.

Are you all right?

I'm fine.

ZEDD:
It appears the resistance
has grown by two.

Would've been three if we were
able to confess Demmin Nass.

The important thing is we kept
Gryff from harm and--

And averted the vision
of the Seeker's death.

Oh, we did
more than that.

We found this.

Maybe it can tell us
what he wanted at Kelabra.

[***]

It's a record

of the day Kelabra fell.

With the walls crumbling,

the Kelabrans
killed themselves

to protect the city's
greatest secret.

And what is the secret?

The final resting place
of their greatest treasure.

A Box of Orden.

[ZEDD SIGHS]
What is it?

There are three
Boxes of Orden.

Each one contains unimaginably
powerful magic.

Whoever gains possession
of all three boxes

would be unstoppable.

Darken Rahl would enslave
the entire world.

He would be invincible.

General Nass.

The Seeker and the others
have escaped into the forest.

We have what we came for.

We must bring Lord Rahl
his prize.

Prepare your men.

We leave for the People's Palace
immediately.

Soon Lord Rahl will have
all three boxes,

and the Seeker
will be finished.

[***]

It's good to see you alive,
Seeker.

You have my vision
to thank for that.

Your vision is the reason
Demmin Nass

got away
with the Box of Orden.

Shota!

I feared it was you behind
such diabolical magic.

Zeddicus Zu'l Zorander.

The years have not
been kind.

RICHARD:
Zedd, you know her?

Once, when I was
a foolish young Wizard

and ventured into that
seductress' lair.

Few have ever complained.

Few have ever lived
long enough to.

I should've killed you
when I had the chance.

Who is she?

A powerful sorceress
who rules Agaden Reach,

using her twisted magic
to shape events in her favor.

And she's no friend
of the Seeker!

Nor am I a friend
of Darken Rahl.

If he gains dominion
over this world,

I'll be enslaved
by his magic.

I must help the Seeker,

for the Prophecy says only
he can defeat Darken Rahl.

Then why play these games?

Zeddicus Zu'l Zorander would
accept no help from me.

With good reason.

Hm!
ZEDD: I suggest we get

as far away from this witch
as we possibly can.

SHOTA:
Oh, you can run from me,

but you cannot run away
from the prophecy.

What are you talking about?

I lived.

We averted your prophecy.

That was a vision.

A momentary glimpse
of a possible future.

Something written
in the Halls of Prophecy

cannot be changed.

And what is
this prophecy?

It is written that the Seeker
will be betrayed

by the one
who is closest to him.

You will be betrayed

by the one in white.
