Great Anabyng
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Great Anabyng is a lyrinx character in Ian Irvine's The Well Of Echoes quartet. He is a well respected advisor to Matriarch Gyrull and a mancer of supreme talent. Very little is known about him.
Physically, he is slightly different to most lyrinx as he has a golden crest and usually has black skin (he can still change his skin colour though, so it's not known if this is voluntary). Gilhaelith noted that he is in fact the biggest lyrinx he had ever seen.
Anabyng is said to be a great hero of the battle-field and the greatest lyrinx adept of the Secret Art, though Matriarch Gyrull may be an exception, in terms of power with the Art. This is why he has the title of "Great" Anabyng.
It is thought that Anabyng was once a common lyrinx, as he is known to have earned his honour the hard way, in battle.
