The Gauntlet

Xena survives and staggers alone into the wilderness where she later challenges Hercules to a duel. With Matthew Chamberlain.

Resurrection

In the wake of Darken Rahl's death, one of his commanders, General Grix, tries to claim the throne of D'Hara for himself and eliminate anyone who could challenge him, including Richard Cypher, the rightful heir. Kahlan and Zedd track Grix's D'Haran soldiers, who plan to threaten his rivals with deadly force. Meanwhile, Richard and Cara track Grix to a brothel run by Denna, the Mord'Sith who once tried to eliminate the Seeker for Rahl. Richard soon discovers he is to be an unwilling pawn in Denna's deadly plot to control the throne herself, a scheme in which he may pay the ultimate price.
