Richard and Kahlan kiss in the water

Two juicy tidbits of news have dribbled out about Season 2 of Legend of the Seeker:

We're told there's going to be a rival for Richard's affections (La Legende du Sourcier).

We left off with Richard successfully defeating Darken Rahl, but it remains to be seen whether he succeeded long-term. What? Defeating Rahl opened a rift into the underworld, which means Richard must contend with a war waged on the living (Sword of Truth).

Sounds interesting!  I cannot wait to see it!
