Just as Rahl's forces come through the Boundary, Richard catches up to Fane and retrieves the Book. Rahl orders his forces in the Midlands to take down the Boundary into Westland and kill Richard, while Fane tries to return to Rahl with the Book. Knowing he must stop Fane, Richard accepts his destiny as the Seeker and begins his training under Zedd.

Richard confronts Fane, wanting vengeance. With his last breath, George reveals that what Zedd says is true. In disbelief, Richard returns to his father, only to find that Fane has mortally wounded him. And Kahlan gives Richard the object of Fane's pursuit, the Book of Counted Shadows, which contains the secrets Rahl needs to capture ultimate power. Zedd hands Richard a magical weapon, the Sword of Truth. Zedd reveals that Richard is the Seeker, the person destined to defeat Darken Rahl. Richard learns that Zedd is really a powerful wizard from the Midlands, and Kahlan is a Confessor, a woman with the power to make someone tell the truth. Returning home, Richard is sent by his father, George, to find an old man named Zedd. Ranssyn Fane, commander of the soldiers, survives his confrontation with Kahlan and Richard and continues to pursue them. Richard Cypher, a simple Westland woodsman, helps her escape them. I remember having a pretty big crush on Kahlan back then, but I mean, who wouldn't? Anyway, it's nice revisting this show, and due to the long time it has been I barely remember anything, so it's almost as if watching it for the first time.S1 E1: Kahlan Amnell, pursued by soldiers of Darken Rahl, the tyrant who rules the Midlands, flees that province and uses magic to cross the Boundary into Westland.

At least they're both full length seasons with 22 episodes, so it's kind of like 3-4 of today's seasons, I guess.

And it's the cozy and wholesome kind of corny that makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside, so it's perfect for me right now :) I just wish they would've made more than the 2 seasons they did.

But with how dark and gritty many shows nowadays are, something more lighthearted and optimistic like this is a nice change of pace. I'm currently 15 episodes in and it's just as corny as I remember. And I unwittingly went on to sport the exact same beard as Darkon Rahl does, lol. It's crazy to think about 12 years have gone by since then and I was still in my early twenties.
