THE PLOT
&& Strengthen our hearts in times of sorrows,
Light the way to bright tomorrows.
The prophecy has been fulfilled. With the death of Darken Rahl at the hands of the Seeker, the people are freed from the evil tyrant who once sought to control them. The news is one of instant joy as people far and wide begin to celebrate. Indeed, it seemed as if things could only get better but those who know anything about the world know that good things have a tendency to take a sudden turn for the worse.** “The Skeerlings are lose, the Keeper may win
His assassins have come to rip off your skin.”
Darken Rahl may be dead and gone, rotting in the Underwold but a new evil has taken his place, one that is stronger than the previous ruler. With the destruction of the Boxes of Ordon, a rip in the veil has formed allowing the Keeper to send creatures from the Underworld into that of the living. Now Richard and his companions are to find the Stone of Tears if they have any hope of fixing the veil before the Keeper takes them all.
