Legend of the Seeker

Darken Rahl: As the mother of my child, however monstrous you've proven yourself, I shall grant you a merciful death. Egremont, take her to the block. Young Nicholas: No, Father. Please. Let me do it.

Alice: There must be another way. Kahlan: No. I knew what he was the day he was born. I should have done it then. As soon as they find the body, Rahl will know it was me. It's up to you now, Alice. To stay alive, find the Seeker. Alice: But without a Confessor-- Kahlan: Maybe Richard will find another way. Just tell him, Alice. Tell him that his own Confessor never stopped loving him. And that if he can't undo the magic, if he can't return to her then, she'll be waiting for him, in the Underworld. Forever.

(Speaking about 9-year old Nicholas) Alice: You have to tell him what he needs to do, before its too late. Kahlan: What if he's not ready, what if his father succeeds in corrupting him? Alice: Trust in yourself My Lady. In every kindness you taught him. (Kahlan sits next to Nicholas) Kahlan: Nicholas? There's something I need to tell you. Something very important. (A young boy bursts in revealing his freshly cut-off finger) Ethan: Master. I brought what you asked for. Does it please you, Master? Nicholas: Yes, it pleases me. You may go now. Kahlan: Nicholas. Have you Confessed Ethan? Nicholas: Yes, Mother. Kahlan: Why? Nicholas: He didn't want to play the same games I did. What was it you wanted to tell me. Kahlan: Just-- just that I love you very much. Nicholas: I love you too, Mother.

(Watching 2-year old Nicholas play) Alice: Look at him, he's so generous with his toys. Kahlan: Maybe his father was generous at that age too. Alice: His father didn't have you as a mother. Nicholas: Mama. (Kahlan kneels and picks up the boy) Kahlan: Come here. Oh. My Nicholas. Do you have any idea how special you are?

Kahlan: The Seeker isn't dead. Alice: Where is he? Kahlan: Fifty-seven years in the future. Now there's a way he can get back, but he doesn't know what that is. Alice, I need you to stay alive, no matter what that takes, no matter who you have to hurt, or betray so that you can tell the Seeker what he needs to do to wind back time. Kahlan: And one of the things he'll need is a Confessor. My child. That's why I agreed to marry Rahl. No matter what it takes to convince him of your loyalty, even if it means killing me with your bare hands-- Alice: My Lady, I can never-- Kahlan: Yes, you can. And you will, if that's what it means to stay near this child. Alice, you must tell her, who her mother was, and who the great hero Richard Cypher was. And you must teach her what she needs to do to help the Seeker return to his own time, and save the world from Darken Rahl. Alice: My Lady, I'm only a Blacksmith's daughter. Kahlan: And the Seeker was only a woodcutter's son.
