The attacks against the Old World have begun. The destruction is gaining the desired effect and Jagang soon speculates that the D’Haran soldiers are behind it. Kahlan and the army are finally in front of the People’s Palace and are building a ramp to try and gain entry due to any other kind of attack would be foolish. Richard’s caravan of soldiers has made it to the camp and he sees Kahlan and she sees him too. Although she does not know him because of her loss of memory she immediately feels a connection without talking to him.
Nicci visits the People’s Palace to see how Nathan is handling the place. While at devotion she realizes what she must do. She rushes to the Wizard’s Keep and puts the Box of Orden that Rachel returned to the Wizard’s Keep in play under Richard’s name.
It was the end of the book but it left with the remark that Richard was given the chance of their success for the final battle was not the battlefield against the Imperial Order, but the magic of Orden, the power over life and death itself. She had given Richard the chance to take the power of Orden; She had given Richard her trust that he would uphold life when he had power over it.
