We still don't know exactly what the purpose of the star birthmark is. Why would the sorcerer have just meant it as an identifying mark if he never expected anyone to see her again? I'm thinking that the author added it, and he has a way planned for her extra evil to be removed. He probably made the apprentice say that to build suspense, like a trailer teaser that makes it look like something really bad is going to happen when it really won't. He's a madman obsessed with telling a good story at any cost. To him, that means drama, so he's going to drag them through a lot of mud before he makes things right.
