The Sorceress (also called "The Lady in the Cave") is a mysterious, evil sorceress in the form of a disembodied head and a minor villainess in The Little Mermaid TV series. She is the main antagonist of the series' 11th episode "Red". She was cursed to be trapped in a cave by King Triton himself many years ago, and conspires with Glowfish to get the trident and set herself free. She did so using the Youth Stone, a magic crystal that will make anyone turned into a young child via the sound of a magic flute which activates the stone's spell.
