Why have you called us
"Why have you called us?" the Bird Man asked, in their hollow, harmonic voices.
She leaned a little toward Richard, keeping her eyes on the Bird Man. "They want you to say why you called this gathering."
Richard took a few deep breaths, recovering from what they had done to him.
"I called this gathering because I must find an object of magic before Darken Rahl finds it. Before he can use it." Kahlan translated as the spirits talked to Richard through the elders.
"How many men have you killed?" Savidlin asked with spirit voices.
Richard answered without hesitation. "Two."
"Why?" Hajanlet asked in their haunting tones.
"To keep them from killing me."
"Both?"

"The first one I killed in self-defense. The second I killed in defense of a friend."
' "Do you think the defense of a friend gives you the right to kill?" Arbrin's mouth moved this time.
"Yes."
"Suppose he was going to kill your friend only to defend the life of his friend?"
Richard took a deep breath. "What's the point of the question?"
"The point is, according to what you believe, that you think it is justified to kill in the defense of a friend, then if he was killing to defend a friend, he had the right to kill your friend. He was justified. Since he was justified, that would void your right, would it not?"
"Not all questions have answers."
"Maybe not all questions have answers you like. "
"Maybe."

"Did you enjoy killing this man?"
"Which one?"
"The first. "
"No."

Richard took a deep breath and let it out slowly as he stared up at the void. "Yes. I enjoyed killing him, because of the magic of the Sword of Truth. That is how it works. If I had killed him in another manner, without the sword, I would not have enjoyed it."
"Irrelevant. "
