Belgarath was one of my favorite sorcerer and I miss him. I'm sure I'm not the only one in here, so if you want to remember him, let's play a trivia game.
What was the nickname Garion gave him in Pawn of Prophecy ?
It's been a lifetime since I read these but I'll also take a guess at Polgara or "Aunt Pol" as she was called. Sounds like the kind of sharp thing she might have said, anyway.
