Soo, as far as the after-life goes...not everyone is banished to the keeper, there is also an afterlife with the "Good Spirits". The show has everyone taking trips to Keeper, but it doesn't happen that way in the books. I haven't finished the entire series yet, but so far, Kalen's sister has stayed dead. I think that was a plot line the show came up with on their own. And lastly, Kalen confesses people in the books, it takes a much bigger physical toll on her than it does in the show. She's basically incapacitated by it. In some instances she needs to recover for days. Also, she's very caring and sensiitve and likens confessing someone with killing them, because when they are confessed they cease to have free will...she feels like she's destroyed the person. So while she'll do it to defend herself or others or out of dutyy, she can't bring herself to do it out for gain.   See 1 other reply

Bridget Regan said in an interview that her love for Richard made Kahlan stronger. She might have meant the Con Dar and an increased sense of purpose, but the writers may have intended an increase in her powers as another example of this. You're right, though- they haven't been really clear about this and it doesn't follow from the books in any way.   See 7 other replies

If they made Zedd as powerful as he should be, they'd have to keep coming up with excuses for why he couldn't solve every problem with magic.   See 7 other replies
