Quotes 

• D'Haran Lieutenant : Command me, Confessor!

  Kahlan Amnell : Tell me why you attacked us.

  D'Haran Lieutenant : We had standing orders to kill the Seeker.

  Richard Cypher : Maybe you haven't gotten word. The war's over.

  D'Haran Lieutenant : Yes, but there's a rumor among the officer corps that the Seeker's of the Rahl bloodline, that he's next in line for the throne.

  Cara Mason : Then the D'Harans should serve him, not try to kill him.

  D'Haran Lieutenant : My commanding officer, general Grix, wants to claim the throne for himself. He's trying to eliminate anyone who would challenge him. Not only the Seeker, but rival generals in the D'Haran army as well.

  Cara Mason : Only a Lord Rahl can rule the empire, not some common foot soldier.

• Cara Mason : If you had assumed the throne of D'Hara months ago, the army would be helping you in your quest, instead of trying to kill you.

  Richard Cypher : If I had claimed the throne, I wouldn't be on a quest to find the Stone of Tears. I'd be too busy killing and scheming to keep control of my empire.

  Cara Mason : Sometimes ruthlessness is required of a leader. Fear is the only thing that ever united D'Hara.

  Richard Cypher : I've never tried to get people to follow me by terrorizing and killing them.

  Cara Mason : Your sentiments are noble, but impractical. A true leader takes power, he doesn't ask his subjects for permission first.

  Richard Cypher : That was Darken Rahl's way... not mine. Now let's go find Grix.

  [Cara follows him] 

• Courtesan : Welcome to the Palace of Athenia. What is your pleasure?

  Denna : Tonight it seems the pleasure is all mine.

  Richard Cypher : Denna?

  Denna : It's good to see you again, Seeker. I heard a rumor you were travelling with a Mord-Sith. Thank you, Bella, I'll look after our guests.

  Courtesan : Yes, Madame Denna.

  Cara Mason : Madame Denna? The right hand of Darken Rahl, reduced to peddling flesh.

  Denna : Times are difficult. A Mord-Sith has to make a living... now that the war is over. I'm simply taking what I've learned... and putting it to good use. And pleasure, after all, is the inverse of pain. Knowledge of one makes mastery of the other so much easier. You of all people should know that, Cara.

  Cara Mason : The place of a Mord-Sith is at the side of Lord Rahl.

  Denna : So, the rumors are true.

  Richard Cypher : We're looking for a D'Haran general named Grix. Do you know him?

  Denna : I find that it's good business to be friendly with the local commanders.

  Cara Mason : You provide them with whores, and in exchange, they leave you alone.

  Denna : Many of my clients would enjoy your acerbic tongue. You could do very well here.

  [to Richard:] 

  Denna : What's your interest in the general?

  Richard Cypher : He's gotten hold of a supply of Whisperers. He's planning to use them against other D'Haran officers. Destroy the villages. If we don't find Grix, he could wipe out half your clientele. If you know where he is, you'd better tell me.

  Denna : He left. When you find him, and I'm certain you will, remind him he still owes me for the damage he caused. The general and his men drank too much, and destroyed one of my finest suites.

  Richard Cypher : I'll pass that along.

  Denna : As pleasant as this has been, I have other guests to attend to. But I hope you'll both indulge yourselves while you're here. Compliments of the house, of course. It's the least I can do for old friends.
