Sormo E'nath

a Wickan warlock

'A tall, bow-legged figure stepped into the room, face hidden in the shadow of a goat's-head cowl, which he now pulled back, revealing the smooth visage of a boy no more than ten years old. The youth's dark eyes...

Kulp: 'Sormo E'nath - an old man - was executed at Unta,...He was the most powerful of the warlocks - the Empress made sure of him. It's said he took eleven days to die...This is a boy'

Bult: 'Eleven days...No single crow could hold all of his soul. Each day there came another, until he was all gone. Eleven days, eleven crows. Such was Sormo's power, his life will, and such was the honour accorded him by the black-winged spirits. Eleven came to him. Eleven.'

'The boy spoke, his voice reedy but breaking, on the edge of manhood. 'I am Sormo E'nath, who carries in his breastbone the memory of an iron spike. Eleven crows attended my birth.'(DG, UK MMPB, p.76)

'...Sormo E'nath. Within the one man, eight elder warlocks...'(DG, UK MMPB, p.759)

Kulp: That boy has the aura of an ancient man. I could smell on him the ritual drinking of mare's blood, and that ritual marks a warlock's Time of Iron - his last few years of life, the greatest flowering of his power.' (DG, UK MMPB, p.82)

On Warlock rituals: (DG, UK MMPB, p.179-80)

After being attacked by Soletaken and D'ivers during a botched ritual, Sormo says:
'Somewhere, a crow flaps broken-winged on the ground. There are but ten left.' (DG, UK MMPB, p.183)
