Especially Kahlan's compassion for the Mord'Sith in general, as it's something I really wanted to see on the show at some point.

I remember reading some interview with Bridget and how she showed all the actors who played people she confessed the description of confession in WFR. In the books, confession has the same effect on everyone, but in the show, they all have their own little spin on it. After that, I just couldn't see Nathair and Dahlia as anything other than a reflection of the type of person they were before they became Mord-Sith. Kahlan would have to notice it at some point, right? I always like that even though the Mord-Sith go through a very painful death via confession, the ones we've seen always bear it in relative silence. It's heartbreaking. D:

Thanks for reading. :)

It made my night (morning?) to finish writing it! I just got back from a wedding and my free time for writing for the past week spiraled to nothing because I was so busy. Thanks again for the comments, you're always so generous. :3

Oh wow! this is....*iz speechless*

The intensity of the emotions...this really got me.
I love that even though Cara is in the grip of an 'insidious magic' she still trusts Kahlan.
Dare I ask for a continuation.

I'd like to think with how much emphasis the show places on the overwhelming power of love (protecting Richard from confession, him defying Mord-Sith breaking, and Kahlan pulling out of her own self-confession) that even Darken's evil dildo magic would be subjected to the Dues Ex Machina of Love. Or that real love could go so far as to protect a Mord-Sith. Why wouldn't it, right?

Dare I ask for a continuation.

I wasn't really planning on it, though I do have an idea of what I saw happening afterward in my head. It just didn't have the impact that this part of the story had so I left post-confession out.

I keep rereading this and keep finding new things. I'm addicted to the intensity of this. And I understand if you don't want to continue it.

Thanks so much for writing this.

I kind of want to now, but I'm really eager to start what I consider an epic. At least in my head, it's epic and fun and awesome. Yes, I know I'm being a tease talking about it. Bad OC, bad!

Also, thanks for reading and commenting. ♥

This made me happy, even if the dentist is waiting! And that means a lot! Great style and amazing story. Thanks for sharing... <3

OH NOES THE DENTIST. D; That's never fun. I remember when I actually liked going because for some reason the dentist that I went to gave out cheap ceramic animals instead of stickers and stuff. It was awesome because I painted and drew all over them. BESIDES THE POINT.

Thanks for reading and commenting. ♥

Lucky-you! Mine will only operate...- and I´m frightened as a common Mord Sith before confession... ;o) so your story will help, sure!!(clinging to the hope...)
