"Outlander" hosted a panel at the recently concluded San Diego Comic-Con. The cast and crew of the Starz time traveler series, including Sam Heughan, Caitriona Balfe, executive producer Ron Moore, and author Diana Gabaldon attended the event.

The entire panel answered several questions and even raised a couple of interesting details on what's next for Jamie Fraser and Claire Randall in "Outlander" Season 2.

While "Outlander" Season 1 may seem to have ended on such a dark note for Jamie, as he painfully recounted the events that took place in Wentworth Prison with Black Jack Randall (Tobias Menzies), things started to look brighter when Claire announced that she is pregnant. As it turns out, though, Claire's pregnancy will also put their relationship to the test.

"Even though she's so excited about this pregnancy, it does bring up a lot of her insecurities and a lot of her fears," Balfe told Zap2It.

The 35-year-old actress also revealed that Claire has gone through a traumatic experience during childhood and does not have an inkling as to what being a mother means, having lost her parents at a young age.

Balfe's co-star, Sam Heughan also seemed to share the same sentiments on Claire's pregnancy. The 35-year-old Scottish actor revealed that things are pretty much the same for his character, Jamie.

"They need each other to survive and to deal with this new world that they're not quite accustomed to."

Meanwhile, showrunner Ron Moore told TV Line that while "Outlander" Season 2 will be based on Diana Gabaldon's second book, "Dragonfly in Amber," there will still be changes that are bound to surprise the readers and viewers.

'It's nice to preserve a little bit of the mystery for even people who have read the book," Moore said.
