Richard, as Cara predicted, cannot kill Cara. However, Kahlan kills Dahlia by confession, and this distracts Cara and allows Richard to knock her out. Zedd suggests the ancient and unpredictable Spell of Undoing to remove the dark magic holding Cara and to learn where the Stone is. The spell not only removes the magic, but changes history. Zedd awakens at the wedding altar of Richard and Kahlan, who are being married by Darken Rahl. He learns that Cara is not a Mord-Sith here, but a mother of two and school teacher. She was not there to use her Agiel on Richard when he was joining the Boxes of Orden. Therefore, the plan worked as the Book of Counted Shadows said; Kahlan's confession kept the Boxes from controlling him, and the Boxes' power allows him to be with Kahlan. They are married, and the next morning Richard learns Kahlan is pregnant. The Keeper, existing outside of history, knows things have changed. He commands Marianna to kill Richard's sister, Jensen. They capture her and do so, and three of them drink her blood to become ungifted. Richard comes to rescue her with Darken Rahl and some Mord-Sith, and confronts the other Sisters in the cave. But just as he takes control of them with the power of Orden, the three Sisters take the boxes. Richard loses his power and is defeated by Rahl.

Dahlia tells Zedd and Kahlan they will serve Lord Rahl when they come under the power of Orden.

The Keeper, intending to stop Richard himself, opens up a wide rift stretching for miles. Richard on one side of the rift and separated from his companions, continues in his quest to defeat the Keeper once and for all. With the Stone of Tears in hand, he reaches a village ravaged by banelings and meets a young boy named Declan, who wants to accompany Richard on his quest. While being left alone in a cave, the Sisters of the Dark find Declan. Declan speaks in the Keeper's voice, revealing himself to be the Keeper in disguise and commands them to kill Kahlan, due to the prophecy that as long as she lives the Keeper will fail. Declan then follows Richard who reluctantly allows Declan to continue to follow him on his quest. Meanwhile, after being attacked by Nicci, Darken Rahl orders the Mord-Sith to assist Richard in his quest to defeat the Kepper. Nicci catches up to Kahlan, Zedd and Cara. When Kahlan tries to confess her, she falls under the control of the omnipotent Nicci when she uses Kahlan's own han to confess her and sends the Mother Confessor on a mission of destruction and to get the Stone of Tears back from Richard. Nicci, intending to slow Richard down long enough so she and Kahlan can catch up to him, she blinds Richard by sending crushed up glass into Richards eyes with her han. With Declan as his eyes, the blinded Richard continues on his quest to the Pillars of Creation. Cara and Zedd encounter the Mord-Sith sent by Darken Rahl and they form an alliance to help Richard, eventually finding Nicci and shooting her in the neck with an arrow. When Nicci dies, Kahlan, still under Confession due to her being confessed by her own han and not Nicci's goes into the con-dar and swears to avenge her death. After Kahlan commands the Mord-Sith to kill themselves, Cara tries to kill Kahlan and revive her to free her of Confession but hesitates due to fear of failure and lets Kahlan escape. Once again we see Sister Verna who warns a group of monks of a prophecy that the Seeker will be led blindly to failure by the Keeper under the mask of a child, and pleads with the monks to find the child and kill him. Kahlan pursues Richard but comes under attack of the Sisters of the Dark just as she catches up to him. The blind Richard gives the Stone of Tears to Declan, unknowingly fulfilling the prophecy that the Seeker will give the Stone to the Keeper and tells him to take it to the Pillars of Creation and assists Kahlan as best as he can while being blinded. The Keeper takes the Stone of Tears down into the rift as Richard and Kahlan finish off the Sisters of the Dark. Kahlan then makes her move on Richard and attempts to confess him but fails and reveals to him that Declan was the Kepper and that he had fulfilled the prophecy. Kahlan then stabs Richard and kills him. With Richard's dying words of "I love you" Kahlan comes out of the con-dar, and mourns over what she had done. luckily Zedd and Cara catch up just in time and Cara revives Richard. Though the Keeper took the Stone into the rift, Kahlan's tears for Richard had created a new Stone which they take to the Pillars of Creation and use to seal the rift to the Underworld forever. Zedd reveals that the reason a new Stone was created and the reason Kahlan couldn't confess Richard is that there was no magic more powerful in the world than Richard and Kahlan's love for each other. Richard, now immune to her touch of confession can finally be free to be to be with her and the episode ends with a joyous kiss.
