He travelled into the far north, the gods blessing him with power and an extended life span and when he returned he attempted to shape the destiny of the Norsii to help bring about the End Times. [2a]

[2c] Although Cormac plannned to ravage the Empire when Sigmar retreated to Middenheim, Kar Odacen convinced him that he must attack the city of the White Wolf to extinguish the Flame of Ulric. [2d]
