the books explain it and the show does not. in the books it's just like hades. JUST LIKE IT. the keeper does nothing LITTERALY he just chills out enoying the souls he gets good or bad. The creator is life and the keeper is death. it's not like heaven or hell the creator cannot exist in the underworld   See 13 other replies

sometimes half the books are spent talking about how much richard is the only man alive who can love kalen and how much they love eachother. Cara serves richard because he freed them from darken raul and let them decide what they would do with there future. the more sith server richard beacuase he gave them something they never thought of or even though possible freedom. cara and richard and close friends and nothing sexual.   See 8 other replies

Cara is completley devoted to RIchard because he is rightfully the Lord Rahl. Cara does love him because while being the rightful Lord Rahl he chooses not to use that power and instead allows her to be free and make her own choices. Given the choice to not follow him makes her chose to follow him..how is that for irony. Cara's love for Richard coul dbe romantic but she chooses not to let it be that way out of respect for Kahlan, Richard and the feelings they have for eachother. In the books Cara often makes little jokes about how she would take Richard if Kahlan decides she doesn't want him and things like that but it is clear that the bond between all three of them is too strong for Cara or Richard to seriously think about eachother in that way.Richard knows how Cara feels and is simply too devoted to Kahlan to think anything of it. Honestly Richard and Cara wouldn;t be a good match anyway..they get along well and do understand eachother but are all around quite different.The whole hting is a story about true love between Richard and kahlan and that is how it is whe people are truely in love..they love eachotehr and only eachotehr even if they can;t be togather and there is someone who they could be with right there.   See 8 other replies

Cara is utterly devoted to Richard, but she is in no way romantically attracted to him.   See 8 other replies

I never really thought of Cara's love for Richard as being romantic love. Because she is still a Mord-Sith, she is bonded to Richard as her Lord Rahl, and it is her duty to protect him. What she loves about Richard is that he is a decent human being, who encourages her to be the same. He is a Lord Rahl she would choose to serve, even without the bond. Romance would only complicate the relationship.   See 8 other replies
