"Legend of the Seeker 2x05" " Wizard Original Air Date on December 5, 2009" "Sync, corrections by elderman" "It's holding steady at north-northeast." "Which should bring us within a league of Winterhaven by noon." "We could stop there for a hot meal." "I thought the compass was supposed to point the way to the Stone of Tears, not the nearest tavern." "To reach the Stone of Tears, we need all the sustenance we can get." "Zedd." "Look." "Somebody's favorite fruit." "The persimmon is far more than my favorite fruit." "It's the pinnacle of creation." "One doesn't often see such a perfect specimen this late in the season." "I hope none of you are expecting a slice of the last persimmon of the year." "Wouldn't think of it." "That's very generous of you." "Mm." "Mm." "Mm." "Any persimmon you can eat without getting juice on your chin..." "Mm. --isn't worth eating in the first place." "Can I have a, um...?" "A drink of, uh...?" "Argh." " Water?" " Yes." "Water." "Thank you, Kahlan." "My name is Cara." "I know that." "You called me Kahlan." "I absolutely did not." "Zedd, you did." "I did?" "Are you all right?" "No, I'm not all right." "It's not indignity enough that I have more aches in my joints than joints in my body, that I stumble to the privy six times a night." "Now I'm forgetting the word for water, and calling people by the wrong name." "I must be older than I thought." "You?" "Old?" "Zedd, I'd be lucky to be half as sharp as you are when I'm your age." "Where's Tarralyn?" "Tarralyn?" "Yes, Tarralyn, my daughter." "Where is she?" "Zedd, Tarralyn isn't with us anymore." "She died last summer." "My daughter's dead?" "How can that be?" "You've known about Tarralyn for a long time." "This is not like you." "You have the best memory of anybody I've ever met." "Zedd, something is happening to you." "Happening." "Yes." "Something's happening." "The persimmon." "Zedd's the only one who ate it." "Maybe it was poisoned." "Not poisoned." "Spelled." "A spell of f-f-forgetting." "Is there a way to undo it?" "Yes." " A potion." " A potion of what?" "Elderberry blossoms, mandragora, and the dust of a Shadrin's horn." "We'll find them." "Zedd, who would have done this to you?" "There's only one person powerful enough to spell a Wizard of the First Order." "Who knows exactly what fruit I wouldn't be able to resist." "Who?" "Zedd, who?" "Shota." "Why would Shota want to do this to you?" "Why would who want to do what?" "Take away your memory." " Let go of me." " Zedd." "Why are you all looking at me like that?" "Who are you people?" "Find elderberry blossoms." "I'll get the mandragora." "For the Shadrin, we'll have to go into the caves we passed." "Keep Zedd calm." "Zedd." "Zedd, it's all right." "Get away from me!" "Don't let him get away." "No!" "No!" "Richard." "Richard, are you all right?" "Unh." "Where's Zedd?" "He ran off." "You and I will go up to the caves and try to find a Shadrin." "You follow Zedd." "He can't use his magic against you." "When you find him, bring him back here." "He's a very big Wizard." "I may have to do it my way." "Just don't kill him." "Go." "Unh." "Do you think I like having to come down here personally?" "Third week running we've only gotten four gold pieces from you." "Didn't we agree your fair share of maintaining the beauty of our great city was eight?" "Stop that." "You're hurting him." "What are you gonna do about it, old man?" "Excuse me." "Yes?" "You're very beautiful." "So I've heard." "Payment upfront." "Payment?" "You didn't think you could partake of my wares for free, did you?" "Coins, old man." "Those little round, shiny things you keep in that purse on your belt." "Purse." "Oh, yes." "Coins." "I'm afraid you'll need ten of those." "The price has gone up." "Now that half of every farthing I earn goes to Drago." "I wish I had ten." "Do that again." "I'll try." "Girls, uh, take this gentleman upstairs and see that he has the best night of his life." "What about her?" "Well, that would be up to Salindra, and Salindra's very choosy." "But if you ask her nicely, she might go upstairs with you." "Salindra." "Will you come upstairs with me?" "Sorry." "You remind me too much of my grandfather." "Come along, handsome." "Who needs her when you've got us?" "Why is it that when I'm hunting down a man," "I never have to look further than the first brothel past the city gates?" " Keep away from me." " Sorry." "Your little adventure is over." "I'm taking you back to Richard and Kahlan." "I'm not going anywhere with you." "I think you'll reconsider." "Thank the Spirits you're safe." "Who are you?" "How did I get here?" "I'm Shota." "I brought you here." "I'm your friend." "If you're my friend, then send me back to where I was." "Oh, I can't." "That woman in red would have killed you." "I saved your life." "I'm not gonna hurt you." "I love you." "I don't even know you." "Have the years taken that much from you, Zeddicus?" "Have you forgotten even me?" "Zeddicus?" "Oh, my love." "You don't know that you are Zeddicus Zu'l Zorander, the greatest and most powerful Wizard the world has known in 3,000 years." " I am?" " Yes." "There is so much to say, but we don't have very much time." "The world is in terrible trouble, and only we can help." "A rift has been torn in the veil between the Underworld and the Land of the Living." "If the Seeker of Truth does not find the Stone of Tears, the Keeper will put an end to all life." "The Seeker of Truth?" "Who's that?" "A great hero, one that can only be named by a Wizard of the First Order, and you, you are the only Wizard of the First Order alive." " The only one?" " Yes." "But as you got older and began to lose your memories, you made a mistake." "You named the wrong Seeker." "A Seeker prophesied to fail." "That's terrible." "Yes, but fortunately, I've found a new one, a young man of great courage." "And once you name him, and he is able to fulfill his quest, then not only will the world be saved, but then you and I will be free to live together, as we did long ago, in bliss." "And with our combined powers, Zeddicus, we will master the world and protect it from evil." "But how can I help?" "An old man, who doesn't remember his own name?" "Oh..." "I can restore what you have lost." "Your youth and the mastery of all the spells and magic that were yours in that golden time long ago, back when you were at the height of your powers." "Come." "You are the great love of my life, Zeddicus." "I'm not surprised." "The Keeper isn't resting, and neither can we." "In order to name a new Seeker and send him off on his quest, we need two things." "First, the Sword of Truth." " I know them." " Yes." "The man you wrongly named the Seeker, and the misguided Confessor who protects him." "They tried to attack me." "Of course they did." "To prevent you from naming the new Seeker." "Shadrin." "Halt and drop your weapons." "Poaching on the personal reserve of Drago," "High Lord and Master of Winterhaven, is a crime punishable by death." "We didn't know we were on anyone's personal reserve." "Lord Drago was a great friend of Lord Rahl's." "He'll be more than happy to see the Seeker and the Confessor hanging from his gallows." "Take them." "But don't let her touch you." "She's deadlier than a poison dart." "For what I am going to do," "I need to join my magic with yours." "Give me your hand." "Think, Zeddicus." "You know the words to the Spell of Taking." "I've restored them to you." "Yes." "Yes, I remember them." "Say them with me." "Astounding." "Not for us, Zeddicus." "For us, it's barely more than a parlor trick." "Richard!" "The new Seeker needs one more thing to complete his quest." "Stop!" "Unh!" "What's this?" "Witchcraft." " What is it?" " A compass." "In the hands of the Seeker named by a Wizard of the First Order, it will illuminate and light the way to the Stone of Tears and the salvation of the world." "But the province where we will find the new Seeker is many leagues from here." "We must leave immediately." " Leave?" " Yes." " Right now." " I don't want to leave." "I like it here." "Is it Winterhaven that you like, or one of the harlots?" "I should have known that by giving you a beautiful face it wouldn't make you any less of an old fool." "Fool, am I?" "Many thanks for the beautiful young face." "And the wonderful spells." "But I'm not going anywhere with you." "Hello, Salindra." "Do I know you?" "Well, I guess I don't look like your grandfather anymore." "Oh." "It's you." "Well, you certainly have a lot of tricks up your sleeve." "Heh." "What are you wasting your time on a mouse like this for?" "Oh, he is hardly a mouse." "Are you trying to impress me?" "What is it?" "Why are you looking at me that way?" "When I first saw you," "I thought you might be the princess" "I was looking for." "But I don't know, dressed like that." "And what self-respecting princess goes around without a footman and ladies in waiting?" "Well, the real question is, what kind of princess goes around without a prince?" "Do you like the view?" "Very much." "Then allow me to welcome you to your new palace." "I don't see a palace." "Not yet." "Girls?" "Mm." "Half a dozen of them." "Hanging all over him." "And then he disappeared." "I've been searching for him all night." "Look." "I guess we know where Zedd is." "Let's go." "Does this meet with Your Majesty's approval?" "I think it will do." "Once we get there, how do we get Zedd to drink the potion?" "You won't be able to get near him." "Shota." "He thinks you're his enemies." "He'll obliterate you." "I don't know what you did to him, or why, but I'm gonna stop him before he hurts somebody or himself." "Oh, just because you have flowers and roots and a Shadrin's horn, that doesn't mean you can reverse my spell." "No, what I have done, only I can undo." "Then do it." "Oh, heh, I will." "After he has named a new Seeker." "What?" "Oh." "He hasn't told you about the Prophecy." "What Prophecy?" "A month ago I told him that it was written in the Halls of Prophecy that Richard Cypher will fail in his quest to defeat the Keeper." "Fail how?" "What do you mean?" "I don't care about Prophecy, and I don't have time for your riddles and tricks." "None of my prophecies have ever proved false." "I begged Zedd to name a new Seeker, but he was too blinded by his sentimental attachment to his grandson." "I hoped that if I stripped him of his memories," "I might convince him to do what had to be done." "Richard is the Seeker." "Of course you'd say that about the man who you love." "But I didn't come here expecting your help." "I came hoping for yours." "Why would I help you?" "Because you don't care who bears the name of Seeker, you only care about protecting Richard Rahl." "But if he continues on this doomed quest, the Keeper will win, and he will die along with everyone else in the world." "Now, Zedd can't use his magic against you." "If you subdue him, then I can force him to do what must be done." "Funny, how people always curse the Mord-Sith, until they need one." "Do you want Richard to live or don't you?" "You're right." "Wizards can't use their magic against a Mord-Sith." "And neither can witches." "There's only one way to stop that from happening again:" "Undo the spell you put on Zedd." "No matter how much we give them, Great Wizard," "Drago always wants more." "I swear to you, sir, and to all citizens of Winterhaven, such cruelty will never again be tolerated in this city." "They've destroyed all my wares, my children will go hungry." "If there's something you can do to help..." "Ha-ha!" "Thank you, thank you, Great Wizard." "Monica." "Will you accept this trifle, in thanks for befriending me when I was a ragged old man with no castle to my name?" "It's very beautiful, Great Wizard." "But there's trouble in Winterhaven that all the jewels of Athanasia can't fix." "The dead coming back to life, murdering people in their homes." "The Keeper's work, people say." "Same for the cracks in the ground, opening up all over." "A tear in the veil between the Underworld and the Land of the Living." "There's a rift just outside the walls of the city." "A monster crawled out of it last week, slaughtered two of my best customers, on their way back to their village." "You have to help us." "To help you seal the rift, and defeat the Keeper, we need to find the Stone of Tears." "And to find the Stone of Tears, we need a Seeker." "Yes." "Richard Cypher." "Hm, I'm afraid we can't rely on Richard Cypher." "There's a Prophecy that says he's destined to fail." "Don't worry, we'll have a new Seeker." "Only a Wizard of the First Order can name one, and fortunately, I am such a Wizard." "Who will you name?" "As Wizard of the First Order," "I hereby name as Seeker of Truth and Bearer of the Sword..." "Zeddicus Zu'l Zorander!" "Yes." "The compass points the Seeker's way." "My princess and I will depart at once on the quest for the Stone of Tears." "Secure horses and provisions for all those who wish to accompany us." "Yes, My Lord." "What sorcerer dares to raise a castle in my city?" "I'm no sorcerer." "I am Zeddicus, greatest of all Wizards," "Seeker of Truth, and high lord and master of Winterhaven." "This man will die." "And let it be known that any friend of his is an enemy of mine." "Oh, Drago, you always were a man who overestimated what he had in his quiver." "I'm afraid this time you've met more than your match." "Kill her first." "The choice is yours." "You can join me on my quest, or you can suffer the same fate." "Which is it going to be?" "A wise choice." "Drago." "My Lord." "You're alive?" "No." "And neither are you." "Then this place" "The Underworld." "You served me well in life, Drago." "I did my best, Lord Rahl." "And I will reward you with an offer from the Keeper:" "Kill and live." "My Lord?" "One more day of life for every soul you deliver to the Keeper." "I gratefully accept, Lord Rahl." "And I will begin by ripping out the heart of Zeddicus Zu'l Zorander and feeding it to my dogs." "Zorander the Wizard?" "Yes, Wizard, and now Seeker of Truth." "Seeker of Truth?" "Yes, My Lord." "He named himself." "The former Seeker, and the Mother Confessor, are they with him?" "Not that I saw." "But when I send the Wizard to the Keeper, you can ask him yourself." "Unfortunately, a Wizard of the First Order is not so easy to kill, as you yourself discovered." "But don't worry, your death will be avenged." "Halt!" "So this is a rift between the Underworld and the land of the living?" "Yes, Wizard." "One of many, all over the countryside." "Do you hear me, Keeper?" "Your plans will come to nothing, for I, Zeddicus, greatest of all Wizards, high lord and master of Winterhaven," "Seeker of the Truth, and Sealer of the Rift, will lock you in your prison for all eternity." "She's dead." "My love, I will bring you back." "Salindra." "Salindra." "Lord Rahl." "Don't be frightened." "It's much too late for fear to do you any good." "What are you going to do to me?" "That would be up to you." "If you like, I could give you a second life." "At what price?" "Only small one." "Simply deliver the Wizard to the Underworld, along with the Sword of Truth and the compass." "What do you need them for?" "Haven't you heard?" "The Keeper is fighting a war to conquer the World of the Living and he needs your help." "Can he count on you?" "Isn't there some other price I could pay?" "Don't tell me you've fallen in love with him." "He's a nice fellow." "He's been kind to me." "They're all nice fellows to you, as long as they have a little gold in their pocket." "On the other hand, you're welcome to stay here with us in the Underworld." "The Keeper maintains a very special chamber of torments for those who traffic in love." "Ask yourself, what is the life of one Wizard?" "Come, Salindra." "You're a practical girl." "She's getting cold." "She's not coming back." "There are some things nobody can do." " Not even you, Great Wizard." " No." "There's nothing I can't do." "My beauty." "I've brought you back." "Zeddicus." "What"
