Welcome

Liam sat down nervously and gave his complete attention and focus to the soul energy fragments drifting in front of him. This would be the first time he was actually going to forge a human soul from scratch.

When he had forged Gorak, it was an unusual situation where that idiot had clung to him as a vengeful spirit. 

Crawford's soul was another special situation where the soul was already weakened to a certain degree and perhaps something else also happened.

Liam suspected that the old guy tried to remove the soul and send it back to his original body while Liam was trying to pull it away in another direction. 

With the two of them tugging the soul in opposite directions, perhaps it was heavily weakened and torn into half or something like that. At least this was his guess.

And as for One, Two, and Three, they were all forged from soul fragments of multiple people joined together. So the difficulty in that as well was not too much.
