To Reach Beyond our Homeland

Filled with a burning passion to explore new lands and travel onward, hoping to someday reach the land of Valhalla, a viking stays true to their brothers, sisters, and siblings, and never abandons the quest. We do not fear the unknown. || A place for general Asatru worship, advice, and art, and random pre-Christian Scandinavian history. || Run by a gay trans man. Bigotry will not be accepted in any form.

Reenactor throws a spear at a drone

What a time to be alive.

“The medieval warrior, realizing the consequences of his impulsive act, immediately approached the owner of the drone and offered to pay for the damage.

The owner of the drone was so impressed by the brilliant attack that he suggested organizing a competition for bringing down “dragons” with short spears next year.

Drone owners have another year to develop a unique “dragon-like” design for their flying machines.” (x)

I am 100% cooler with this knowing that the spear-thrower realized “oops maybe I shouldn’t have done that” and tried to make it right, and that the guy who the drone belonged to was cool with it

just so everyone knows, this has already been memorialized in a runestone

[stephendann]

Everything about this post blesses those involved with a +4 on their next Today is Good Day roll

[fromaliminalspace]

a rough translation of inscription on the runestone:

On the seventh day of May in the year of 2016 on hither spot the mighty warrior Ulf hath slain a dragon with his spear.

so yeah, happy birthday to this dragon-slaying event and to it only

Happy Ulf Hath Slain A Dragon With His Spear!

I hate to ask this based on the circumstances, but if any fellow Norse pagans would be willing to offer prayers, especially to Tyr, I would greatly appreciate it.

For those who don't follow my main, I filed a police report a little over a week ago after a stalker began sending horrific, violent, sexual, and sexually violent content to me and others, and continued to make multiple accounts one after another to stalk me and the others. Several victims came forward to me because I chose to be outspoken, and take action for the sake of myself and them, knowing I am the adult, I am responsible for protecting myself, and I can't let others suffer.

The investigation still continues. I don't have any updates yet, but I'm at the end of my rope, and have been for months. My health has been terrible for the last year, although finally it is improving now that I have all my meds back, and am working relentlessly to figure out medical routines that work for me. I'm due for more surgery later this year, I've begun weekly therapy again to help with the stress management, and basically every day I'm not working, I'm at doctors appointments (sometimes multiple in a day), or I'm making calls to follow up with doctors. It's been a continuous battle for the last year with my health and wellbeing, and now this stalker case is piled onto everything.

So if anyone can offer prayers that he might be brought to justice, especially offering the prayers to Tyr since he is the god of justice, righteousness, and law, I would be very appreciative.

At least I have a vacation planned with a friend. I need it big time.
