"That man, he not a good man, you'd do good to stay away from 'im.
Muh little girl was sick when 'e came into town, and 'e said 'e could help her.
He came into muh home an' cut muh little girl's head clean off.
Sayin' that she ain't sick no more. You stay 'way from 'him."
Camile, wife of Samuel Waken
"There was something about his eyes, an intensity, a quiet power in a simple glance.
Eyes that were often hidden under a horned helm which gave him the appearance of a devil.
He had these strong hands that slid into gauntlets that never seemed to grow tired.
And his two-handed longsword seemed too agile to be controlled by his hands alone.
As if it had a mind of its own. As if it were protecting him."
Alexander Tendus, citizen of Torrich
"I fought him, yes, that's how I lost my ear. He wouldn't stop looking me in the eye.
That was the most intimidating thing, that he could read my face, my movements.
But the way he swung that blade, there was something else going on there.
I remember clearly the way I was constantly struggling to make my own sword move.
Like he was in control of both weapons. I can't explain it better than that."
Dell Crow, retired Guardian of the Rose
