[***]

I'm taking breakfast
to Evelyn,

she's still down
with that bad leg.

Will you be all right
till I get back?

Yeah, I've got
my accounts to finish.

That's not what
I'm talking about, Conor.

I'm worried about you.

You should be worried.
For your own safety, as well.

Make sure you stay
on the main roads today.

Don't you think
it's possible

you're overreacting
to all this?

There's two of us dead, Nella.

Well, I don't care
if they looked like accidents.

Someone out there
is targeting the resistance.

When Kahlan gets here,
we'll find out who.

Kahlan is coming?
I sent an urgent message.

She'll show you
the truth of my words.

I don't need a Confessor

to tell me I should believe
in my husband.

You've decided
where we're taking the box?

The one place
in all the Midlands

where Rahl can't get into,

neither by spell nor
by force,

is the Crypt of the Ancient
Seeker at Tavol'Rang.

And that's where
we're headed,

with a detour to my home town,
to pick up the key.

Pack up.
We need to go now.

Agreed.

It's a day's walk
to my house,

and three more to Tavol'Rang.

We need to go by way
of East Marwen.

This message found its way
to me in the marketplace.

Some friends of mine
are in trouble.

The entire Midlands
is in trouble

if we don't get
this box locked away safe.

I know. But the friend
that sent that message

is a leader
in the resistance.

He and his wife risked
their lives to hide me

when I was running
from Aydindril

with The Book
of Counted Shadows.

We'll just have to meet up

after you get the key.

Wait, Kahlan.
You can't go alone.

ZEDD:
He's right.

A Confessor can't travel
without her Seeker,

the Seeker can't travel
without his Confessor.

But who would
trouble themselves

with an old man
in a tattered cloak?

Thank you, Zedd.

I'll meet you
in East Marwen,

the day after tomorrow,

with the key in my hand.

The box goes with me.

Too many D'Harans
in these parts

on the lookout
for the Seeker.

[***]

Conor?

Nella?

[SOBBING]

Nella, what's wrong?

[SOBBING]

[***]

[***]

[SOBBING]

I came as fast
as I could--

[GASPS]

Eternal darkness

upon the soul
of whoever did this.

This is Constable Declan.
I sent for him.

You can speak freely,
he's one of us.

I'm Kahlan Amnell.

It's been a long time
since we had

a Confessor
in East Marwen.

You've come
when you're most needed.

I'm Richard Cypher.

It is an honor beyond words
to meet the Seeker,

though I wish we met
under happier circumstances.

Do you have any idea?

I can't bring Conor back,

but I swear to you
on my power as a Confessor...

I will bring whoever
killed him to justice.

Conor knew
he was in danger.

The message
he sent to me said

that two of the men
in your group were already dead.

Yes.
[SIGHS]

We believe
they were murdered

by traitors in league
with the D'Harans.

One of the men appeared
to have taken his own life,

but there was no reason
for him to have done that.

The other was crushed
under his own wagon

while he was fixing a wheel,

but nobody saw it happen.

When was the last time
you saw your husband?

I left before breakfast.

The sun was just coming up.

I spent the morning
with a friend,

she's been sick,

and when I came back

the place was torn apart,
and I--

[SOBBING]

DECLAN:
Was anything missing?

Uh...

Just his inkwell.

The golden one
his father gave him,

and a silver bowl
he kept on his desk.

The sick friend you visited,

does she live near a marsh?

NELLA:
No, a meadow. Why?

It's just these seeds
they're still green,

newly fallen,
from a stalk of Kindon grass

and it only grows in marshes.

There's just one marsh
around here.

I've never been
to Conor's house in my life.

Are you sure about that?

I'm sure.

I-I stay close to home.

So you wouldn't know anything
about a mysterious highwayman

who roams the roads at night,
robbing travelers?

A man like that might even be
capable of murder.

No, I--

I wouldn't know anything
about that, constable.

Well, would you know
anything about this?

Kindon seeds.

They were found on the floor
of Conor's home.

The only Kindon grass
in East Marwen

grows in the marsh
next to your property.

Where were you
this morning, Niles,

around sunrise?

Uh...

I was...

in the woods.

Hunting.

You can't lie
to a Confessor, Niles.

Never been
to Conor's house, have you?

Declan, what are you doing?

I'm sorry, Luna.

Conor Greenleaf is dead.

By your brother's hand.

No. Niles would never--

Please, don't make this
harder than it is.

My brother is not a murderer.

Let him go.

KAHLAN:
He won't tell me anything.

We need to know
the full truth of his crimes,

so the people know
justice has been done.

Will you Confess him?

What if you're wrong,
and he's innocent?

He'll lose his mind,
his will, for nothing.

I can tell he's lying.

In Westland,
we have judges and counsels,

we make sure somebody is guilty
before we punish them.

Counsels,
no matter how wise,

make mistakes.

Confessors don't.

It's three murders, Richard.

We owe it to Conor,

and we owe it
to the resistance.

[***]

NILES:
No!

No! No!

No!

[ECHOING]

[MOANS]
I got you.

Tell me what happened
when Conor was killed.

It was the morning.

Early in morning.

I went to his house...

[GRUNTING, GASPING]

I'm sorry I lied
to you, Confessor.

I killed him

and I took the bowl
and the inkwell.

Do you know anything
about the deaths

of Conor's two friends?

No.

KAHLAN:
Did anyone help you?

Are you working
with the D'Harans?

Nobody helped me.

Please, don't hate me.

Please.

[CROW CAWING]

KAHLAN:
Go with them peacefully.

Accept your fate
with dignity.

Yes, Confessor.

DECLAN:
Under the power of a Confessor,

Niles Braggindor has admitted

to taking the life
of Conor Greenleaf.

He will be punished
in accordance

with the laws of the Midlands
and East Marwen.

[WOOD CREAKING]

[CROWD CHEERING]

I'm sorry
for your loss.

I loved Conor
like a brother.

I know you did too.

Thank you for helping me bring
his killer to justice.

This town is lucky
to have you.

Conor risked his life
thousands of times

fighting for freedom,

and then he dies
in a common robbery.

That still doesn't explain
the other two deaths.

MAN:
Constable!

I've been robbed.

Sit down,
I'll find you a healer.

MAN:
I don't need to sit,

I need to find the thief
who stole everything I own.

Where did this happen?

Two hour's ride north
of here,

just after sunrise.

A highwayman put
a blade to my throat.

I tried to fight him off,
but he was too strong.

Why don't you come
into my chambers?

You can describe him.

I don't need
to describe him.

He's right
in front of me.

That's impossible.

Niles was here

in East Marwen at sun up,

taking the life of another man.

I'm telling you,

he's the one
who robbed me.

If that's true,

we just executed
an innocent man.

[***]

[***]

[SHOVELING]

Thaddicus.

Good day to you.

Thaddicus, it's me. Zedd.

Of course it is.

It's only been 23 years,
how could I forget?

There was no way
for me to send word.

I was on the other side of
the Boundary, in the Westland.

I'm sure you had
magical business

of earth-shattering
importance there.

Yes. I did.

Thaddicus, is Mother, uh--?

Here?

Of course she is.

Where else would she be?

Come, she'll be
overjoyed to see you.

When?

Five years ago.

Your name on her lips.

Where's my Zeddicus?

Why didn't my Zeddicus
ever come home?

[QUIVERING BREATH]

You look like something
the dog rolled around in.

Come in and have
something to eat.

And a bath.

KAHLAN:
A highwayman had
a knife to your throat.

You were frightened.

Of course I was frightened.

But I know what I saw.

I know, I know.

Identical beard,
similar clothes.

Don't forget his eyes.

Ah, yeah, his eyes.

You were looking
into his eyes.

Just like you've been
looking into mine

for the past quarter hour.

So what color are they?

My eyes?

Ah.

Um...

Grey.

Blue, actually.

Amazing how the mind plays
tricks under pressure, isn't it?

Or...

someone paid you
to come here and say all this.

And stab me?

A warning,

of what they might do
if you don't play along.

That man robbed me.

RICHARD:
Kahlan.

When you confess someone

they fall in love with you.

Are you sure that
once Niles was confessed

he didn't just tell you what
he thought you wanted to hear?

The confessed can't lie
to a Confessor, ever,

for any reason.

What did they take
from you?

Uh, a bag of silver.

All my tools.

And a bracelet I was
bringing to my wife.

Green stones in a gold circlet,
with rubies along the edge.

You're lying.

What are you going to do,

confess me
so you can prove that?

Apparently your confessions
aren't all that reliable.

Did you say green stones
in a gold circlet?

What about them?

MAN:
That's it.

That's my bracelet.

[GRUNTS]

Where did you get that?

My brother
gave it to me.

When?

This morning.

Right after he stole it
from me.

He stole it
from you this morning?

Around sunrise?

Yes.

Then he couldn't have
killed Conor.

My brother may
have been a thief,

but he was no murderer.

You killed him.
He didn't have to die.

[SCREAMS]
Hey, hey, it's okay.

Calm down, Luna.

Calm down.

LUNA:
Are you proud of yourself,
Confessor?

You murdered my brother

as sure as you drove
a stake into his heart.

[SOBBING]

[***]

I'm sorry,
Nella.

Niles didn't
kill Conor.

He was robbing a man
when your husband died.

You confessed him, Kahlan.

He said
he did it.

I don't understand.

Neither do I.

NELLA:
If Niles was innocent,

then why were Conor's things
in his house?

And how did those seeds
get on my floor?

We're searching for answers.

We don't have them yet.

Maybe we do.

Unless a man can be
in two places at once,

then the whole thing
is crazy

and every time something crazy
happens in the Midlands,

there's always one thing
behind it:

magic.

Richard--
No,

I'm right about this.

Is there anyone
in East Marwen who has magic?

There's a man up in the caves
who claims to be a sorcerer.

[CRICKETS CHIRPING]

KAHLAN:
An innocent man is dead,

because of me.

It's not your fault.

Okay? It couldn't be.

Maybe somebody's doing
something to you.

Maybe it's Darken Rahl,

maybe he's--
No.

Nobody--

Not even a Wizard
of the First Order

has magic powerful enough
to work against a Confessor's.

There's something wrong with me.

Hey, listen.

There is an explanation
for all this

and we'll find it.

I know you.

And who you are is more

than some magical power
you have.

[***]

[GRUNTING]

Aah!

KAHLAN:
Go! He's getting away.

[GRUNTING]

I'm going to pull it out.

[GASPS]

[GRUNTS]
[SCREAMS]

[PANTING]

You have to go. Now.

I'm not leaving you.

I'll go into town,
I'll get Declan.

You have to catch him.

Go. I can walk.

Now.

[GROANING]

[PANTING]

Luna.

[BANGING]

You're a fine cook, Thaddicus.

[SCOFFS]

Don't patronize me.

I'm not patronizing you.

You always had a gift
in the kitchen.

Your vegetables,
so fresh and crisp.

As opposed to--
May the Spirits forgive me.

--Mother's.

[CHUCKLES]

Remember those carrots?

[CHUCKLES]

Paste.

I gagged every time.

Twenty-three years, Zedd.

Twenty-three years.

Your room's
just as you left it.

I go in every now and then,

make sure the mice haven't
brought the place to ruin.

Just passing through, is it?

I came for something
very important.

[SCOFFS]

What a surprise.

Zeddicus shows up
because he needs something.

And what is it this time?

Night Stones?
Sorcerer's Sand?

Well, you're too late.

I sold it all years ago.

You didn't sell what I came for.

The key to the Crypt
of Tavol'Rang.

[LAUGHS]

That was the first thing to go.

Have any idea
what you've done?

Our family always protected
that key.

It was a sacred vow
our ancestors made

to the First Order
of Wizards.

Here's the truth
of the situation, brother:

I'm not a Wizard.

As you never
for one second let me forget.

You know as well as I do

that not every child
inherits the power.

I am not going to apologize
for the ways of fate.

So the way you lorded me,
that-- That was fate?

The way you left me
to do the kitchen chores

because you were meant
for greater things?

The way it was always
"Run off and play, Thaddicus,"

while Father gave
his precious time

to the training
of the great Zeddicus?

Memories are slippery things,

but the crack
of Father's stick

across my knuckles
is hard to forget.

You need the key?

Why don't you use your mystical
powers to conjure it?

You always did love
showing off your magic

to your poor,
powerless brother.

You know
it doesn't work that way.

Wherever you went,
you should have stayed there.

That key
was not yours to sell.

You were always like that,

no thought of anything beyond
the next penny in your pocket.

I'll bet all the jewels
in Tamarang

that whatever
you sold it for

went straight
to the gaming tables.

Be sure to bolt the door
on your way out.

[SLAMS DOOR]

Did you see who it was?

[SIGHS]

He was just a cloak
in the shadow.

Are you sure it was a he?

Luna's out of her mind
with rage,

most of it directed at you.

Her father made his living
as a hunter,

just like Niles.

The girl knows
how to use a crossbow.

We need to go her cabin.

I don't think you're ready--
Oh, I've had worse.

We're going. Now.

[***]

Richard.

Richard.

Richard?

[PANTING]

What happened?

I killed her.

I tracked Luna to the house.

I mean,
I-I knew it was Luna

when I saw the cloak
and crossbow.

And then...

And then what?

You-- You saw the crossbow...

I heard a noise.

It was Luna.

[GRUNTING]
She attacked me,

so I defended myself.

She scratched at my neck.

She was defenseless.

I didn't have to hurt her.
Please, don't hurt me.

[STABS]
[GROANS]

But I killed her anyway.

I don't believe
that you killed that woman.

Look at me.

The Richard I know risks
his life every day for others.

You wouldn't kill
a defenseless woman, I know you.

I did it, Kahlan.
I remember it.

Just like Niles remembered
killing Conor.

Maybe his memories weren't real,
and neither are yours.

You said that magic
had to be behind all this.

Well, now I'm starting
to agree.

We need to go find
that sorcerer.

Well, I hope you're right.

'Cause right now,
I don't trust myself.

What if I do something
like that again?

You won't.

Because I'll be with you.

Every second.

[KNOCK AT DOOR]

What did you come back for,

another magical treasure
for one of your schemes?

Well, go away.
I lost them all at cards.

No more waiting, Zorander.

One hundred gold pieces.

You only won 70 off me.

[SCOFFS]
The extra 30 is the price
of my patience.

I--

I haven't got any.
I can't pay you.

Oh, you're gonna pay.

Slowly.

If I can't get my money,

then I'll just have to have
some fun with you instead.

[GRUNTS]

[GRUNTING]

[YELLS]

[CLATTERING]

If you ever dare to show
your face to my brother, ever,

you'll wish I had
burned you to cinders.

Now get out.

[GROANS]

Why'd you come back?

I got about a league from here
when my temper cooled

and I realized...

[***]

The task that calls me away
is a grave one, Thaddicus.

The chance that I will not
return alive is--

Is great.

I didn't want to go
to the Shadows knowing

that my last words
to the only brother I have

in all the world were unkind

and unfair.

Now let's get you cleaned up.

You look like one
of Mother's turnips

after an hour in the pot.

[BOTH LAUGH]

Besides,

I always did love
showing off my powers.

[GASPING]

Hm.

KAHLAN:
You're the only sorcerer

anywhere near this village.

Do you know anything
about these murders?

Were they your doing?

No.

He's telling the truth.

And I'm really more of
a sorcerer-in-training, anyway.

Uh-- I've been studying
magic books my whole life,

I've learned
a few minor tricks,

things you can do
with powders and potions.

You don't have any powers?

MAN:
But that doesn't mean
I can't help you.

My knowledge in the field
is quite extensive.

You say these victims believe
they did something they didn't?

They don't just believe...

they actually see themselves
doing it in their heads.

MAN:
Shared visions.

Memory magic.

I've read something
about that...

in here.

There are accounts
of an ancient device

that produces
the effect you speak of.

Here we go.

Azzallel's Orb.

Azzallel was a fantastically
gifted wizard.

His wife gave birth
to a blind daughter.

Now, Azzallel tried
but failed

to manifest new eyes
for his baby girl.

So instead,
he created a way

of plucking visions
from his head

and placing them
inside hers.

Uh, Azzallel's Orb
was stolen 200 years ago

and believed
to be lost forever.

DECLAN:
Hello, Bosin.

Still stealing money
from old ladies?

[CHUCKLES]

I found something.

When we were searching
Luna's cabin,

one of my men pulled
this scorched paper

from her fireplace.

There's handwriting there,
but I can't make it out.

Maybe you'll have better luck.

BOSIN:
Ah-ah. No luck required.

This I can help you with.

May I?

Dust of a Shadrin's thigh bone.

[CHANTS IN ANCIENT TONGUE]

Like I said,

a few minor tricks.

"Dearest Luna.

"I can't meet you tonight.

"I think my wife knows.

Missing you desperately.
Conor."

Conor and Luna were lovers?

If Nella knew about that,

she'd have a good reason
to kill her husband...

and Luna.

My husband is dead.

Why are you doing this to me?

KAHLAN:
Nella.

Oh, Nella.

Did you kill Conor and Luna?

Yes.

And then gave the memories
of what you did to Niles.

And me.

I'm sorry.

Where is it, Nella?

Where's the orb?

[***]

I told Conor I was leaving

to take breakfast
to a sick friend.

But I didn't make it
very far.

[GRUNTING]

After I killed Conor,

I gathered seeds

from the grasses
near Niles' cabin

and scattered them
around the body.

Then I ransacked my house

and hid our possessions
in Niles' cabin.

All that was left
was to put the visions

of what I did
into Niles' head.

And the memories Richard has
of murdering Luna?

Right after I killed her,

Richard came running
into the cabin from the woods.

[SOBBING]
How could I have done
such a thing?

It's time to go, Nella.

And lemon cake,
my own creation.

You know you could make
a living at this.

An honest one.

[SCOFFS]
Patronize me again,

you'll get a pack full of sand.

Where to now?

The less you know
about where I'm going,

and why, the better,
for your own sake.

I know I'm guilty
of occasional self-importance,

but in this case the fate
of the world actually may depend

on the success
of the errand that calls me.

In that case...

you'll need this.

The key to the Crypt
of Tavol'Rang.

You had it all along?
Of course.

Mother would've come back
from the grave

swinging that iron skillet

if I'd let it out
of my sight for a second.

How could you put me through
such a thing?

I was angry

that you came home
for something you needed...

and not to see me.

I needed to see you too.

[***]

How are you feeling?

Like I killed
an innocent woman.

I still keep seeing her die.

Hearing her screams.
Feeling her blood on my hands.

I loved Conor and Nella.

They would've given
their lives for me.

They almost did.

To lose them over this?

Over jealousy and anger.

You don't have to watch.

Uh, the other two who died,

I'd like to talk
to their families,

see if there's anything
you didn't find.

DECLAN:
I'll take you to them,

after.

Don't worry,

Conor's work will go on here,

no matter what.

Are you all right?

Richard, when you described
Luna's attack,

you said she was
scratching you, right?

She went after my face--
Well, Nella's face.

[GRUNTING]

She scratched me right here.

Hurt like a stinging nettle.

I just saw
three deep scratches

in that exact spot
on Declan's neck.

What are you saying?

It's no coincidence.

Luna scratched
her attacker.

And whoever attacked her
committed all the murders.

Nella Greenleaf
will now be consigned

to the Shadows,

in accordance
with the laws of the Midlands

and East Marwen.

Wait!
Stop!

Lower the door.
KAHLAN: He killed Conor!

He killed them all!
Now!

[YELLING]

[***]

[SCREAMS]

[YELLS]

No...

I'm not with the resistance.

I've been killing off
the resistance.

Why?

I believed
in Darken Rahl.

That he would protect us.

You had to know

that killing Conor
would draw attention.

I had no choice.

Conor was growing
suspicious of me.

When he told me
he sent for your help,

I had to act quickly.

[GRUNTS]

The hard part

was making the murder look
like Niles did it.

Where did you get
Azzallel's Orb?

From my father.

It's belonged to my family
for hundreds of years.

Oh, it's a wonderful device,

really.

All you have to do is think
of what you want

the other person to remember

and the orb does the rest.

Everything was perfect,

until the man Niles robbed
on the road showed up,

after Niles was hanged.

And then you

kept asking questions.

With a Confessor around,
I knew I'd never be safe.

So I tried to kill you.

Aah!

And with the Seeker tracking me,
I knew I had to cover my tracks.

I ran straight to Luna's.

[PANTING]

[GRUNTING]

[GRUNTING]

[GASPS]
Don't hurt me.

[BOTH GRUNTING]

So you're the one
who knocked me out?

I put the memory of Luna's
murder into your head.

It seemed like the best plan
at the time.

What I didn't count on
was the Confessor fighting

for your innocence.

That's when I gave Nella

the memories
of everything I did.

To make her the mastermind.

So Conor
and Luna were never lovers?

DECLAN:
I wrote that letter myself.

I knew the hermit had the power

to restore burned objects.

It's a trick he performs
at children's parties.

Did you kill the other two?

The suicide,
and the accident?

Yes.

Both of them.

I see the error
of my ways now, Confessor.

I only hope
you allow me to atone

by serving your will

for the rest of my days.

My will

is that you die
by nightfall.

Yes, Confessor.

But by then you'd better be
a long way from here.

I sent word
to the D'Harans

that the Seeker was
in East Marwen.

They're on their way
from Fort Naramond,

to take the Seeker.

They'll be here by sundown.

We should go.

There's still one thing
I need to do.

NELLA:
It wasn't your fault, Kahlan.

Declan had us all fooled.

I should have
suspected him sooner.

At least you got justice
for my husband.

Anything you need.

Whenever you need it.

ZEDD:
A remarkable story.

And a very powerful piece
of magic.

I remember killing that woman

as clearly as I'm looking
at you now.

No one should have to live
with a memory like that,

except a real killer.

If you like, I could use
Azzallel's magic here

to pluck it from your mind.

I'd be very grateful.

Although Richard's probably
not the one who needs it most.

Would you--?

Absolutely not.

No?

What I did really happened.

I'm not as infallible
as I thought,

and it cost
a man's life.

I don't ever want
to forget that.

Things were never this
complicated in Westland.

You could always go back.

Not a chance.

On to new pressing matters...

The magical key
to the Crypt of Tavol'Rang.

You got it.

How was the visit
with your family?
