The Gorgon
Actually if you read the last chapter of the Iron Throne novel, it practically
tells you a weakness of Gorgons, namely that he is bonded to his home province
of Kal-Saitharak by his own bloodline. Just before Gorgon killed Michael Roele,
roele earthed his bloodline, and when Gorgon committed bloodtheft whilst Roele
was doing this, it linked his bloodline to the earth itself, making him a
prisoner in his own castle (Battlewaite). This would explain why in recent
centuries this great unrivalled warrior has begun to master sorcery as a way of
extending direct control over his subjects/armies, and also as a possible way
for him to research a way to free himself.
As for this once a generation reaving that his armies do, it has never stated
in any of the book that Gorgon himself leads these armies of devestation, or
that his harvest of bloodlines takes place on the battlefield, it could just as
easily be done by bringing blooded prisoners back to Kal-Saitharak for Gorgon to
kill.

I just reviewed the book and the passages of Michael's death and it makes no
refrence of the Gorgon being tied to the land, it simply indicates that
Michael robbed the Gorgon of his chance of bloodtheft by grounding his
bloodright into the earth...so I stand by my above statement...there is no
published evidence that the Gorgon is tied to the land in someway...in fact
following another novel"Greatheart " the Gorgon was on his way tp the
Sielwode at one point, obviously he was not tied to the land here.
