Darken Rahl
- Cara Mason: [strung up with chains, badly beaten] Where's Zedd?
- Darken Rahl: Your concern for the Wizard is touching. I shall put your tender heart at ease. He's alive... for now.
- Cara Mason: What do you want with us?
- Darken Rahl: Isn't it obvious? I want you back on my side. Though I must admit, you haven't made it easy for me. I may no longer have armies at my command, but fortunately, I knew of your special friendship with Dahlia. I knew she would want you back as much as I do.
- Cara Mason: My son was never kidnapped, was he?
- Darken Rahl: Your son was killed the day he was born. I couldn't risk the little bastard growing up to challenge my authority, now, could I? Oh, Cara, has that made you sad? You really have grown soft since you started serving the Seeker, haven't you? It's my fault, I suppose. I left your training to underlings. But someone as valuable as you deserves my personal attention.
- [picks up Agiel]
- Darken Rahl: This time, I won't make the same mistake.
- Cara Mason: [strung up with chains] Whatever your plan is, it will fail. Richard will find me. And he will humiliate you... again.
- Darken Rahl: My poor Cara. You actually believe the Seeker will stop his quest simply to save you? You're not that important.
- [punches her in the face again]
- Dahlia: [entering] Lord Rahl. Our scouts report no sign of enemies. If you'd like, I can call them back to break the Wizard.
- Darken Rahl: No. Keep them on watch. The Sisters of the Dark have been following me for weeks. They can't be far behind. As for the Wizard, with the rada'han around his neck, he's nothing more than a frail old man.
- Dahlia: [surveying battered Cara] My Lord, you've been exhausting yourself for hours. Let me continue her training, so you can get some rest.
- [clearly has ulterior motive]
- Darken Rahl: [smirks as he hands over Agiel] But pain before pleasure, Dahlia.
- [leaves]
