Ferguson
Biography
An anger turned into a test
Ferguson is a proud senior apprentice whose lightning affinity and aggressive temper make him easy for Lokai and Anze to manipulate. After Saul receives control of Warehouse Two, Ferguson moves against him, believing a direct elemental advantage will ensure victory. The conspirators care less about Ferguson's survival than whether Gorsa will intervene, using the attack to measure Saul's importance. Ferguson instead enters a forbidden soul-research area and is swallowed by its guarded door; Gorsa's failure to recover him confirms his death while revealing nothing useful to the plotters. (Chapters 158–179)
