The fact that Kahlan passes out from pain if she tries to cut her hair is also pretty good.
Adie, the blind witch who cut her foot off with an axe because a poisonous crab bit it is also pretty fucking good.
Not to mention the vast beast (a "skrin" - Goodkind is so shit at naming things) that forms out of the bones she keeps scattered around her house.
And Zedd, the most powerful wizard alive, can't do a thing to it.
Oh, come the fuck on. A sibilant-voiced deformed creature longing and truculently snatching for for the magical item that deformed him.
And lol, the rape pit.
And the naked warrior Kahlan.
And Kahlan taking charge in the rape pit.
And Richard sending his furry friend away for his own good.

More bones tumbled from the shelves. Bones hanging on the wall cluttered to the floor, some bouncing and flipping back into the air as they struck...bones collected in increasing number around the skull...a few rib bones ranked themselves, vertebrae slipped into line, talons tipped claws, leg bones erected to the side of each flank. The jaw snapped into place as the skull rose toward the ceiling.
And Zedd, the most powerful wizard alive, can't do a thing to it.
A squat, hairless figure with long arms and big feet dressed only in pants held up with straps, broke through the grass in front of them. Blinking yellow eyes gazed up at her pointing the arrow between them.
A sharp-toothed grin split its face. "Pretty lady".
It was the witch woman Shota's companion.
"Samuel !" Richard growled. "What are you doing here ?"
The beastly creature hissed and reached for the sword. "Mine ! Gimme !"
Oh, come the fuck on. A sibilant-voiced deformed creature longing and truculently snatching for for the magical item that deformed him.
And lol, the rape pit.
Prince Fyren leaned into the doorway, his voice echoing into the hole. "The Queen worries there may be rats down there".
"Rats ?" came a coarse voice from the pit. "There be no rats down here. Not anymore. We et them all".
And the naked warrior Kahlan.
Her voice came softly. "When those men of the Order see me, whether they think me a spirit or a naked woman on a horse before them, they will stare. While they are staring, they cannot kill our men. But we can kill them. It will divert their attention from the men, to me".
And Kahlan taking charge in the rape pit.
"If you do it this way, you will just be denying yourselves the full satisfaction of it."
They frowned. "What do you mean ?"
"If you're all fighting each other and me, you won't be able to really enjoy me as a woman. Wouldn't it be more enjoyable if I cooperated ?"
They all looked at one another. One to the side spoke up. "She has a point"
And Richard sending his furry friend away for his own good.
Richard took another step back. Gratch took a step toward him. Richard picked up a rock and heaved it at the gar. It bounced off his huge chest.
"Go away !" Richard cried. He threw another rock. "I don't want you around anymore ! Go away ! I don't ever want to see you again !"
Tears ran from the glowing green eyes, over the wrinkles of his cheeks. "Grrratch luuug Raaaach aaarg"
