seriousficSo Richard manages to defeat the Mriswith… yeah, spoiler, he doesn't die on page twenty-five of a six-hundred-page book… with some help from good ol' Gratch. It turns out the Mriswith can talk, just in time for Richard to interrogate them and find out Jagang sent them. So Jagang's got the Imperial Order, the Sisters of the Dark, the Blood of the Fold, the D'Harans, AND the Mriswith on Richard's ass? I bet he also e-mailed him Lost spoilers.
"Six years to find out it's just a fucking magic island? Assholes!"
With the Mriswith all dead, Richard calms down Gratch's berserker rage, leading to a touching scene.
Tears welling in his eyes, Gratch crushed Richard to his chest.
"Grrratch luuug Raaaach aaarg."
Patting the gar's back, Richard struggled to get air into his lungs. "I love you too, Gratch."
Magnificent.
The rest is mainly recapping of what's gone before, although it's not that helpful for those of us playing catch-up. I had to check the Wikipedia page. But anyway, Richard tells his guys to chop off the Mriswiths' heads and stick them on pikes outside the Confessor's Palace to buy them some time. I can only imagine how Kahlan is going to feel about this when she gets back. "I leave to fulfill a prophecy and not only do you throw a party, but I come back to find the decapitated heads of invisible lizard people on my front step?"
That done, Richard vows to 'give the Dream Walker nightmares,' which puts us at Defcon 2 on the Cara Mason Incredulity Scale.
"Dream Walker sounds like a song by Stryper."
