All language subtitles for Legend of the Seeker [02x10] Perdition

Richard Cypher,

you are the true Seeker.

Richard, wake up.

It's late.

Richard, this is not the day
for you to sleep in.

Verna?

How'd I get back here?

Where else would you be?

I escaped from here.

I was headed for my friends.

Richard, you haven't
left the palace

since you came here
to be trained as a Wizard.

No.

This is a trick.

You're suffering
from Lacna'Han.

When Wizards near the end
of their training,

they're sometimes
plagued by

lost memories
and strange dreams.

The intense concentration
required by their studies

overwhelms their minds.

It'll pass.

Now get dressed.

There's someone
who needs to see you.

Kahlan?

I've missed you so much.

I didn't think
I'd ever see you again.

Kahlan,
something's wrong here.

Sonia.

Sonia, this is my friend,
Richard.

Richard,
this is Sonia,

my daughter.

Daughter?

Sweetheart, do you think you
could wait in the other room?

I've a lot
of important things

I need to talk about
with Richard.

Sorry.

She wriggled
out of my arms.

Come here, you.
Oh, there we go.

It's an honor
to meet Richard Cypher.

Richard,
this is Phillip.

The Seeker.

You're the one
who took my place.

No, there were two others
who came before.

Richard...

Phillip is my husband.

She keeps asking
when we're going home.

Sonia, this is our home now.

Let's find you
something to eat, sweetheart.

Kahlan, I've only been away
from you for a week.

How can
you have a daughter?

How can there have been
three Seekers named?

Richard, you've been here
in the Palace of the Prophets

for more than half a year.

And for us
in the outside world,

seven winters have passed.

The Stone of Tears
was destroyed.

And the rift
to the Underworld?

It can never be closed.

After Aydindril fell,

we rounded up what
few survivors we could find

and brought them here

to make one final stand.

They're all that's left?

Maybe in the whole world.

Where's Zedd?

I'm so sorry, Richard.

He gave his life
defending Aydindril.

He died a hero.

And Cara?

On our way out of the New World,

we were ambushed
by a baneling army.

Cara got cut off
from the rest of us,

and we haven't
seen her since.

I've been here
for seven years

and you've never tried
to contact me?

I got your letter.

That your training
was almost complete.

What letter?

That's why we came.

With your Wizard powers,

maybe you can still help us
fight the Keeper.

I didn't write this.

It's in your hand.

You couldn't have
had a child with Phillip.

You would never
confess the Seeker.

I didn't.

Many years ago, we were attacked
by the Sisters of the Dark

and they stole
my Confessor powers.

Once I lost them,
I was able to...

Kahlan, if what
you're saying is true,

I'll help you.

But I don't believe
any of it.

You think I'm lying?

No. Never.

But the Sisters
have been lying to me

ever since I got here.

That's why
I had to escape.

But then
I woke up back here.

They're trying to tell me

I lost my memory
because of my training.

Now you're telling me the Keeper
is on the verge of winning.

I think this is some
kind of trick or spell.

I know you, Richard.

And if you think
something's wrong,

then I'm gonna
help you find the truth.

What did you do to me?

Verna told me
about your confusion.

I assure you, everything
she said was perfectly true.

You've been right here
training for months.

You're lying.
I'm not.

Your training
is nearly complete.

Then why don't
I have any Wizard powers?

But you do.

Lift that urn
with your mind.

I can't do that.

Command it to rise, Wizard.

You have to try.

Banelings have
breached the gates.

Oh, sweetheart.

It's gonna be all right.

Mama and Papa will protect you.

You're bleeding.

It'll be fine.

The banelings have
cut off all the exits.

There's no escape.

Don't give up.

As long as we're alive,
the Keeper hasn't won yet.

These walls are strong.

These walls are strong...

And so is our will.

We can survive.

No matter how bad
things get...

as long as we stick together,

there's always hope.

We have to help him.

There's no help
for him now.

The Valley of Perdition was
created by the ancient Wizards

as a defense against
intruders from the New World.

After Richard
escaped from the palace,

he must have
stumbled into it.

The magic makes those
who enter it

experience
their worst fears.

There is no power
that can awaken them.

But if he stays there,
he'll starve to death.

His visions will kill him
long before that.

What happens to his mind
also happens in his body.

If he can't get out on his own,
we have to go in after him.

The magic of Perdition would
overwhelm even my powers.

If I give you my Han,

maybe you would have enough
power to withstand the magic.

No.

In 3,000 years,

no one who has wandered
into the Valley of Perdition

has ever escaped.

Prelate,
we can't let this happen.

It's the hand
of the Creator at work.

How can you say that?

The Prophecy says

if Richard Cypher
continues his quest,

he will help the Keeper
destroy all life.

But his death here will ensure
that never happens.

Hello, Sister Nicci.

You have no right
to hold me prisoner.

I have the right
to do far worse.

You betrayed our order
by helping

Richard Cypher escape
from this palace.

You were keeping him here
against his will.

You only freed him so that
he would fulfill the Prophecy

and deliver the Stone

to the Keeper of the Underworld,
whom you serve.

Name the Sisters of the Dark
or you will die.

You'll need me alive

if you ever hope
to remove my power

and restore it to Richard.

That is no longer possible.
After you freed Richard

from the palace, he wandered
into the Valley of Perdition.

Richard is going to die.

You failed, Nicci.

The new Seeker
has already been named.

He's on his way
to the Stone of Tears.

The compass is still
pointing the same way.

Maybe it's leading us
to the Stone of Tears.

No, it's leading us to Richard.
I'm sure of it.

Wizard, we've been
travelling for weeks.

Wouldn't it be faster if
you turned us into birds?

How would Leo
carry the Sword of Truth?

In his beak?

So, what kind of bird
would you wanna be?

What difference does it make?

I'm curious.

A blue-tailed sea hawk.

That's a noble animal.

One that attacks
without warning.

Nothing escapes its claws.

Do you know what
kind of bird I'd be?

A parrot that doesn't know
when to stop talking?

A banded falcon.

They're the only birds
that blue-tailed sea hawks

will fly with.

Keep going. I have
a stone in my boot.

Leo has
feelings for you.

Same feelings
all men have.

Fog's even thicker up ahead.

It means
we're getting close.

The fog hides
the path to the Old World.

The compass is telling us
to go straight through.

We're coming, Richard.

We're gonna need...

More water.

Check the cellar.

See if there are
any more water barrels.

I already tried.
The cellar's locked.

The Prelate must have a key.

Water won't save anybody,
Richard.

It's too late.

The Keeper's victory
is at hand.

You're only delaying
the inevitable.

It's only inevitable
if we let it happen.

It's better to surrender
our light to the Creator

than let the banelings
drag us to the Keeper.

You're gonna kill yourselves?

Creator, give us strength
for what we must now do.

And we will surrender our
strength for what you must do.

What about
the sanctity of life?

Killing yourself is an offense
to the Creator.

The fight is already lost.
Let us go home.

She wouldn't want you to give
up. She'd want you to fight

for every single life!

No!

Give me the names, Nicci.

You'll pay for this.

How?

Not even the powers
you stole from Richard

can overcome the rada'han
around your neck.

It is you who will pay.

Give me the names.

You want the names?

I'll give them to you.

Greta, Solange, Naya,

Jodelle, Reyna,

Roslyn, Liliana and Corrine.

We need to find them
immediately.

You're too late!

They're already in hiding,
doing the Keeper's work.

Keeper of the Underworld,

we faithfully do your bidding.

Now, in the name
of your servant Nicci,

we humbly ask
that you do ours.

You are a servant
of the Keeper.

Go, quickly.

No one's seen them
anywhere in the palace.

She's gone.

And she's taken
Richard's magic with her.

The most powerful Han
the world has ever known.

Sister Nicci.

You did well, Sisters,

but there's no time
for celebrating.

The Keeper's work
remains unfinished.

Richard Cypher is trapped
in the Valley of Perdition.

And we need to get him out
so he can fulfill the Prophecy

and deliver the Stone
to the Keeper.

There is another way to ensure
the Keeper's victory over life.

While you were
being held prisoner,

a new Prophecy
was revealed.

It is now written that, "As long
as the Mother Confessor's

pure heart beats,
the Keeper is doomed to fail."

Then her heart
must be stopped.

We've been saved the trouble
of having to look for her.

Our spies have learned
that she and her friends

are already headed toward
the Palace of the Prophets.

This is the hand
of the Keeper at work.

I look forward to
the Mother Confessor's arrival.

I don't think this weather
will hold much longer.

We should find shelter.

No. We need to cover
as much ground as we can

before the rain stops us.

We used to hear
stories about Richard

when I fought
for the resistance.

Where did you fight?
West Lorcastor.

Then you fought
the battle of Stone Canyon.

Yeah.
That was a great victory.

Well, it almost wasn't.

The D'Harans
had us surrounded.

We were out
of food and water.

Our commander deserted us.

You still managed
to defeat them.

A rider arrived with news

that the Seeker had
driven back the D'Harans

at the Battle
of Rising Ridge.

It was one man
against hundreds.

It inspired us to break through
the D'Haran line.

I hope you get the chance
to tell him that story.

I will.

Is everything
all right?

Accepting that
we had to name a new Seeker

wasn't easy for me.

But if anyone
other than Richard

had to take up
the Sword of Truth,

I'm thankful it was Leo.

He's gonna
help us find Richard.

There's somebody
at the gate.

Richard, let me in.

No.
It's Cara.

The last time we saw her

she was cut off from us
by a thousand banelings.

I got away from them.

It's impossible.
She's one of them.

Richard, you know I would never
take the Keeper's deal.

I'm letting her in.

It's a trick, Richard.

I'm not
leaving her out there.

If you're wrong--
I'm not.

It was a trick,
you fool!

She is a baneling.

No!

Mother!

Kahlan, don't move!

I can heal you.
No.

My husband

and my daughter are dead.

I don't wanna
live without them.

What have I done?

What have I done?

Your back's hurting?

I'm fine.

Your back only hurts
when you're worried.

Worried?

I'm brimming with confidence.

You're wondering what you
might've done differently

so that Richard
never would have gone off

with the Sisters of the Light?

You're always the one
to calm our fears

and reassure us that
everything will work out.

But you're allowed
to be worried too.

The river's too swollen
to cross.

We'll have to wait
for the rain to stop.

We should make the most of
this delay and get some sleep.

There's no telling
when we'll get another chance.

I'll keep first watch.

I hope the rain stops.

It's really coming down now.

Yes.

Before the sun went down, I saw
some clear skies to the west.

Hopefully, the wind will
cooperate and send them our way.

That would be good.

I do love the rain, though.

The way it makes
the earth smell--

You know, where I come from,
the man does that.

Then what are you
waiting for?

What is it?

For you.

It matches your leather.

Have I offended you?

Flowers make me sneeze.

Didn't last night
mean anything to you?

It was pleasurable.

But it doesn't make me
your mate for life.

I don't remember asking you
to marry me.

But I do care about you.

And I think you feel
the same.

You're mistaken.

You know, I've been
watching you for weeks,

and I can tell
you care about him.

You can't read
a Mord-Sith.

The Confessor in me can't.

But the woman can tell
you're not telling the truth.

It's a hard world we live in,
Cara.

We don't get many chances.

If you have feelings for Leo,
you should tell him.

We're here!

Kahlan Amnell,

it's wonderful
to see you again.

You were just a child
the last time I saw you,

I doubt you'd remember me.

But my dear Sister
who raised you always said

you were destined to become
a great woman.

And now here you are,
the Mother Confessor.

I'm honored to see you again,
Prelate.

But I'm here for Richard.

I'm surprised that you'd
travel all this way.

I thought you'd be continuing
the quest with the new Seeker.

We have reason to believe
that Richard may be in danger.

Is he all right?

He's perfectly fine.

He's in training right now.

But I'll tell him
you're here.

Thank you.

In the meantime, please make
yourselves comfortable.

You must be exhausted
from your long journey.

Why didn't you tell
the Mother Confessor the truth?

Because she'd go
to the Valley of Perdition

and try to save Richard.

She'd end up trapped
like he is.

And when she realizes
you've lied to her?

By then I will have
sealed the palace.

You're trapping them here?

The Prophecy says
the Keeper can't win

as long as
the Mother Confessor lives.

The Sisters of the Dark will
stop at nothing to kill her.

Keeping Kahlan here is the only
way to ensure her survival.

Richard will soon be dead,
and once he is,

we'll tell her the truth.

She'll understand we were acting
in her best interest.

Congratulations, brother.

You are now
the last person

who will ever live.

Unfortunately, there is no one
left to kill you.

So you will have
the rest of your days

to contemplate your complete

and utter failure.

What is taking so long?

I'm sure Richard is just
as impatient to see you.

Something isn't right.

Did you sense the Prelate
wasn't telling you the truth?

No.

But maybe a woman
as powerful as she is

has the ability to prevent me
from reading her.

Leo.

Yes?

I have something
I need to say to you.

I'm listening.

I just wanted to say...

Where's Richard?

It shouldn't be much longer now.

The Prelate asked me
to serve you a meal.

We're not hungry.

Take us to Richard.
I can't do that.

He's in training.

No one's to disturb him
until he's finished.

You're lying.

Tell us where he is.

I swear on the Creator,
I don't know.

Then who does?

Only the Prelate.
Take us to her.

Now.

Richard's not here.

Where is he?

I can't tell you that.

Well, if you won't tell us,
we'll find him ourselves.

You won't be able to.

I've sealed the palace.

You're holding us prisoner?

No, I'm protecting you.

This is a new Prophecy.

"As long as the Mother
Confessor's pure heart beats,

the Keeper is doomed to fail."

If you leave the palace
to look for Richard,

your life will be at risk.

There are Sisters who serve
the Keeper who will kill you.

I'll deal with them.
No.

The Mother Confessor stays here,
under our protection,

until the Keeper is defeated.

Zedd will get through
your magic.

We're leaving now.

No!

Only a Sister of the Light

can remove the Dacra
without killing him.

Take it out of him.

Confess her
and I'll kill the Wizard.

You'd better hope your magic
is faster than Wizard's Fire.

You may kill me,

but you won't be able
to get out of the palace.

Only I can unseal it.

The magic is quicker than you.

If anyone throws another Dacra,
the Prelate dies.

You're defying
the will of the Creator.

The Creator's will?
Or yours?

They are the same.

Is it the Creator's will

that we hold
the Mother Confessor hostage?

That Nicci is on the loose

with the most powerful Han
ever known?

And that Richard will die
alone in Perdition?

Where is he?

I'll take you to him.

Unseal the palace now.

Our spy reports the Mother
Confessor's reached the palace.

Then the Sisters of the Light
can watch me kill her.

The message says they've already
come and left.

Does the message say

where they're headed?

Richard!

You can't go down there.

It's the Valley of Perdition.

No one who's wandered into it
has ever escaped.

He's in the grip
of powerful magic.

It's causing him to have visions
of his worst fears.

Eventually,
they will kill him.

And the same thing will happen
to you if you go to help him.

We can't just let him die.

Kahlan!

We can't afford to lose
the Mother Confessor.

I'll use all my powers
to try to get him out.

Get down!

Zedd!

Zedd.

Kahlan.

I'm sorry I failed you.

All is forgiven, Richard.

You don't need
to be in pain anymore.

You don't need
to be alone.

You can be with me again,
forever.

How?

All you have to do...

is die.

Oh...

I can't do that.

You can.

There's nothing to fear.

All you have to do
is take my hand

and come with me...

Come with me.
Please.

What's wrong, Richard?

You're not Kahlan.

Of course I am.
No.

Kahlen would never
ask me to die.

She'd tell me
to keep living.

She'd say there could still be
life somewhere in the world.

Look around, Richard.

There's nothing left
in the World of the Living.

You're lying.

And if you're lying,
you're not real.

None of this is real.

I have to go.

No!

Leo!

You don't know how happy I am
to see you.

Cara?

Can you give him
the Breath of Life?

No.

His body is beyond saving.

Leo gave his life

for the Mother Confessor.

In this and in every way,

he brought honor to the title

"Seeker of Truth."

We shall always
remember his courage.

We shall never
forget his name.

I do care about you.

You're going to need this back.

We have a quest
to get back to.
