While Kahlan performs her Confessor’s duties, Richard returns to his birthplace Brennidon but is unnerved to find it under siege with D’Haran soldiers. A woman named Brigid claims to be Richard’s birth mother and that her son Mark is his brother. After witnessing a woman almost getting killed for defying Darken Rahl, Richard is determined to save his village despite the D’Harans’ intention to capture him. Meanwhile, Zedd convinces a woman that he is not the father of her son and reveals to Kahlan that Richard is his grandson. When both find out where Richard is, they rush off to Brennidon. They arrive in time to help Richard and the villagers fend off and kill the D’Harans. Brigid reveals to Richard that although she thinks of him as a son, she is not his mother and that his real mother is out there looking for him.
