Norse-Technic Interfaces

Van Rijn arranges weregild for the families of Gorzuni mercenaries.

He quotes, "Bare is brotherless back.'" (Satan's World, X, p. 99)

Burning with fury, David Falkayn:

"...might have been reliving ancient incarnations as he swung a Viking ax..." (XI, p. 101)

The changes on Satan as it approaches Beta Crucis are compared to Ragnarok.

Dominic Flandry sees time as the snake gnawing the root of Yggdrasil.

Ginnungagap is referenced both in "The Saturn Game" and in "Starfog."

Those are seven examples. Anderson readers can turn back to Hrolf Kraki's Saga etc.

Kaor, Paul!

Weregild paid to the families of those Gorzuni makes sense, imo. Esp. if they came from a still barbarian culture. Weregild paid in sums appropriate to the rank and status of the slain will satisfy honor and remove any grounds for feuds and vendettas.

Ad astra! Sean
