Heartbreaking moments

Season 1 episode 'Sacrifice' has plenty of heartbreaking moments. Today I chose the scene where Kahlan finds Dennee is a D'Haran prison:



Call me emotional but scenes like this always make me well up. I find it easy to empathise with a character and Kahlan has such a big heart that it's almost impossible not to imagine how she feels.
She thought her sister dead and gone, only to realise she must be alive when her mate is discovered still confessed.
And to find her eventually imprisoned and pregnant...well, imagine how you would feel.

A true heartbreaking moment

Heartbreaking moments

Legend of the Seeker gives us the whole range of emotions - from fear, hatred, love, joy, excitement and amazement.
But the heartbreaking moments are one of the things really pulls us and makes us love this show more than any other.

Moment #1



We get our first heartbreaking moment just minutes into the first episode. During Kahlan and Dennee's desperate chase through the forest, Dennee is shot by an arrow. She makes it through the trees but tumbles into the water when they reach the river.
The sight of her lying in the shallows covered in mud, obviously in pain but still imploring Kahlan to leave her and continue their mission is enough to have anyone tearing up. Then it's heightened even more by Kahlan, with her voice breaking, kissing her sister's forehead and asking the spirits to protect her.

I think it was that moment I knew I was going to like this show.

What do you think, was this a heartbreaking moment for you? Or did it not bring a tear to your eye?
