- Devlin: It won't be easy getting in.
- Chase Brandstone: It won't be easy for those D'Haran bastards to keep me out.
- Giller: Captain Ericon, inform Lord Rahl that we are making progress, despite today's, um, disappointment.
- Captain Ericon: Yes, Wizard.
- General Egremont: Lord Rahl, we've received word from the wizard Giller. He wishes you to delay your journey to the keep. He would like more time.
- Darken Rahl: He's had enough time. Tell him I'd be arriving as planned.
- Kahlan Amnell: You're playing with ancient powers that you don't understand. I've seen your creations. Prisoners infected with dark magic.
- Giller: That will soon change. Thanks to those D'Haran butchers, I've only been able to study the bodies of dead Confessors. But now... I can use the Shurkia to harvest your powers, and bestow them on Lord Rahl.
- Darken Rahl: A captured Confessor is quite a prize, Giller.
- Giller: Yes, my Lord.
- Darken Rahl: So your elixir works?
- Giller: Her magic had no effect on me.
- Darken Rahl: You have made more progress than I thought, Giller.
- [at this praise, Giller proudly nods]
- Darken Rahl: Are you sure you can harness the Confessor's powers?
- Giller: Soon her powers will be yours, my Lord.
- Darken Rahl: Mm.
- Darken Rahl: [to his captives] I know how this must pain you both... greatly. Seeing the one you love in such misery. Almost as painful as sharing an undying love which you can never consummate.
- Kahlan Amnell: And what would you know about love... except that you will never feel it... from anyone?
