Plot intor

What you seem to be unable to understand there is a big contextual difference between what "is" cited in the book and your opinion of what you want the plot intro to say. Like a "Firestorm" is contextual and applies the proper matador for what is occurring with the plague. Devastating it is, BUT what you keep missing in your attempt to malign the page is that the Plague is acting like a firestorm, as it was intended to by the people who placed it into action....AND.... is in keeping with the prophecy that announces the bound-fork prophecy... Or perhaps you didn't read the book..which then makes a great deal of sense. I suggest you WLU and NEO check your premises and stop trying to act in a retaliatory manor for a proper edit I made. Your words betray your intent Mystar 16:57, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

As for the Firestorm word, it is a contextually correct word adjective for describing what is going on in the book, plane and simple. Omnilord 02:24, 18 September 2006 (UTC)

Drefan

Who is Drefan? The article mentions him at the end, saying that Kahlan can't defeat him, but this is the only time he is ever mentioned. I haven't read the book myself, so I don't know. Would someone who has read the book please fill in the missing information? Roachmeister 23:44, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

From the first paragraph of the plot summary: Richard's half-brother Drefan, a high priest of a secret sect, does however succeed in curing Cara. I think this makes it perfectly clear who Drefan Rahl is. Also, there is no character page for Drefan because realistically, he's such a minor character (appearing in only this novel) that he doesn't merit his own article. Hope this helps. - Runch 02:53, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
