Quotes 

• Kahlan Amnell : Take me to the seeker.

  Zeddicus Zu'l Zorander : [Looking at Richard]  He's here.

  Kahlan Amnell : Him? But he's...

  Zeddicus Zu'l Zorander : What? Not good enough? You wanted a Seeker, there he is. If he's not up to your standards, well, that's fine by me. Find yourself another.

  Richard Cypher : [barely awake]  Seeker? What are you talking about?

  Kahlan Amnell : You never told him? You were supposed to train him, prepare him. What have you been doing for the past 20 years?

  Zeddicus Zu'l Zorander : Letting him catch worms, steal apples, skin his knees, find out what makes his heart beat faster.

  Kahlan Amnell : [outraged]  My sister gave her life to make sure that I got here, to make sure that I put the book in the Seeker's hands, and he's catching worms?

  Zeddicus Zu'l Zorander : Never knew a great man who didn't have a little dirt under his nails.

  Kahlan Amnell : And while he's getting his nails dirty, did it ever occur to you to give him the slightest inkling that he is the first true Seeker in the last thousand years? He has a destiny.

  Zeddicus Zu'l Zorander : Who are you to decide a man's destiny?

  Kahlan Amnell : It's not me, it's the prophecy.

  Zeddicus Zu'l Zorander : Prophecy be damned! I averted the prophecy when I brought him here until you opened up a nice little door in the boundary and said "Right this way to the Seeker, ladies and gentlemen!"

  Kahlan Amnell : So it doesn't matter that Darken Rahl is growing more powerful everyday, that the people in the Midlands are losing their freedom, dying by the thousands?

• Richard Cypher : I'm not who you want me to be! Maybe all those years ago you saved the wrong child.

  Zeddicus Zu'l Zorander : No. you are the true seeker. You have a great destiny ahead of you Richard Cypher. If you're willing to accept it.

• Zeddicus Zu'l Zorander : Richard Cypher, though the road will be long and the outcome unknown, will you undertake this journey?

  Richard Cypher : I will.

  Zeddicus Zu'l Zorander : Will you leave behind your friends and all that you have known?

  Richard Cypher : I will.

  Zeddicus Zu'l Zorander : Though, the forces of evil are sworn to bring about your death, still, will you go on?

  Richard Cypher : I will.

  Zeddicus Zu'l Zorander : And will you accept the name of the Seeker?

  Richard Cypher : I will.

  Zeddicus Zu'l Zorander : Then I, First Wizard Zeddicus Z'ul Zorander so name you.

  [Zedd points his fingers down at the ground blasting fire. A circle of fire forms around Richard's feet. Richard raises the Sword of Truth and thunder crashes] 

• Kahlan Amnell : [after Richard leaves on Zed's horse]  He's got the sword and the book!

  Zeddicus Zu'l Zorander : Isn't that what you wanted?
