i restarted the book from the beginning and it's even more meaningful the second time around. the very first sentence instantiates the motif of the wall. a few lines later "this moment without time, this place without an earth, this little room, this prison" is like all the major themes at once.

"Each track screams with anger and pain, mirroring the experience of those affected by dispossession of land - feelings fuelled by the members' blend of Aboriginal, Filipino and Ghanaian backgrounds." x

Knucklebreaker

Honoured Runelord of Clan Skarrenruf, Mordrym Knucklebreaker has taken to the unusual practice of scrimshawing the knucklebones of the honoured dead with runes to commend their passing - making sure to shatter those of his enemies with sweeps of his hammer, that the same cannot be done to them in turn. Thane Grym Bardensson tolerates his eccentricities due to his commendable skill at rune-craft and mage-breaking, the warden-king entrusting him with a guard from the Clan’s most redoubtable Ironbreaker company - the Ironbeards.

Shoving all 18 pages of Karak Brynduraz’ lore into a tumblr post would be the death of me - in short, newly built duardin fort in big Ghyran mountain, large fancy magic gemstone they cut the little gemstones in their gear from (hence the name Brynduraz), sky blue is their unifying colour, they like big blasty boom-boom. Game-wise they’re Greywater Fastness, with human support from a certain force of time-addled mercenaries...

I still cannot believe that the first time Ragnor brought Athelstan home he asked him to come have a threesome with him and his wife. Like he really loved that man on first sight
