Oh, Dahlia, even after the torturing Cara she couldn’t bring herself just let her drop to the floor, no mystery that they all have a crush on her!

"Just because I love you, doesn't mean I need you," Cara doesn’t know what she wants basically cuz someone who is in love always needs another, imho. Yes, I want a young Cara back idk that one reminds me of Darken Rahl mixed with Nathair.

"Why are you doing this?" Cara asked. The voice was shaky, weak, more of a whimper than a line of thoughtful words.” Oh, I LOVED how you incorporated the show scene there! So appropriate and just perfect!

"There is a time for everything. There is a time for consequence, for remembering things that once mattered to you. Honor, strength...and me. " Oh, Dahlia, it’s so sad…
You just made it so hard for me cuz with time when I learn more about you I started more and more to see K and you in C and D which is kinda unfair to C and D. They are my fave fantasy girls and I love them no matter what. And I hate K now. I think that I am going to think of them and treat them as my Cara and Dahlia! I just understand why Cara became what she is but I don’t understand K.

“Cara blinked, and when her vision was renewed, she felt as honest and as pure as she had known in many years. "I regret nothing." Dahlia looked away, far past Cara's infuriating mouth as her voice continued. "While you wait for your apology, ask all the stars in the D'Haran sky not to shine." Absolutely! How Cara can regret all she has done? Then she has to regret her becoming and being a Mord’Sith. Idk, I think that they all would regret that if DR will die but would never admit it out loud.

I think that only your Dahlia understands it clearly. That M’S ARE slaves and only difference between them and Kahlan is that they know too intimately the pain and can master it but in all other aspects they are just slaves, imho.

"That is what we are. Nothing more. That's why our love depends on us. I wouldn't let it down, Cara, and neither can you." Perfectly said!!!

"You dare compare yourself to a common pet?" Poor Cara! She is so brainwashed! It’s not them being M’S but their survival and their love THAT is what special about them! I believe that Cara still loves Dahlia but she DID changed! From the girl who would do anything for saving Dahlia and being so compassionate she turned to someone who just enjoys punishing Dahlia and is so heartless. But she really believes that she didn’t change!

That old story was another awesome bit! I could see her and Denna, two little hungry and beaten girls slicing the men’s throats disregarding the consequences! So powerful! But Cara became that awful bitch who had beaten Dahlia half to death for Kahlan and who killed Dahlia just recently for basically nothing. But she still loves her Dahlia! And she is ready to sacrifice herself for her once more! It’s so sad that Cara stuck inside of the M’S myth and refuses to see the truth and reality. I understand that she built this lie to survive and to let Dahlia survive but she made herself to believe in Darken Rahl’s lies! Poor Cara! She is trapped in her own twisted beliefs. Idk, it’s all very complicated. How she can find the way to her own heart and her own soul?

Very intriguing and very heartbreaking scene!!! Thank you! I like that you don’t make their lives easy for them, no ‘powerful magic’ but they have to sort out their love and life on their own!

And it’s interesting that now a real triangle is forming: Denna, Dahlia and Cara! It comes from Nathair/Denna and now Dahlia/Cara interaction. Cool. Cara thinks that Dahlia has crush on Denna but Denna has crush on Cara. What Dahlia thinks of Denna? I was flailing hard!

Im on my beloved ipad and kinda doped so forgive my typing. I just could NOT see dahlia letting cara drop, it just couldnt happen then. I like and i am also intrigued how you see young Cara as a mixture of snake and rahl. Cara does need Dahlia imho too...

Yeah i always wanted to use that line from the show cuz even though its au, they are still partially the same characters just interpreted rom my pov, i guess, so i thought it was a good time for cara to ask cuz she truly didn't understand most of Dahlias intentions then just as she fully doesnt understand them now...

I can understand how unfair it is to see me in D and C and for some reason, i feel i should apologize for it. But it is the only way i have been able to completely invest in these women and this story so its like a catch 22 in some twisted ways

To be honest, i struggle with my hate for Kahlan too and this has only been within the last couple parts...she just doesnt have a niche or any meaningful place right now idk. She's just a broken pet with probably no full loyalty to either Mistress even though she started out loving Dahlia exclusively...i know she's being confusing

You know i will always feel like mord'sith should basically regret nothing lol

Yeah i am still a little unsure about how i feel about dahlia's beliefs about them being these diff kind of slaves but dahlia is her own character and sometimes just completely has her own opinions

Yeah cara still doesn't see how different she is...but it can be argued that she is getting closer. I wanted to include how sometimes denna was noble too when they were young and could be depended upon...but of course she was also bad at times, like in snakes closet. Denna is many things...

Want to comment more on this comment later. Tbc

Nooo, I meant that I want a young Cara back because the late Cara makes me cringe a lot, that the older Cara is a mixture of Snake and Rahl! I like young Cara way better!

Yeah, I love that small voice Cara had, like she didn’t expect it from Dahlia, like she really couldn’t understand her. I still have a tear when I watch this scene.

Yes, I know, you’ve invested completely in C and D and the story is too awesome and heartbreaking. But also you are sooo right about a catch 22. Maybe later if you’ll return to the fic you should leave them more freedom to live their lives and make their choices?

“You know i will always feel like mord'sith should basically regret nothing lol” I know that, you little evil bear! I like that Dahlia has own mind and that her opinion is different from yours :P! I still believe that sometime when they are on their own, Mistresses just sit sadly and try to remember something warm and fuzzy they forgot about and that they want to be hugged and cry on a shoulder and get rid of a constant self control and coldness just for a moment.

And I believe that Cara is getting closer, yes she is. Denna, ha, she is many things *nods*, she is very quietly; I even didn’t noticed how she became my fave maybe cuz she is a lone wolf, lol!
