[11:02] Ŕαĝŋαř turns as he hears footfall on the path smiling he raises a hand at the congregation "Ho there free is good to have ye here" then addresses Kutai " Ah thought here would be good fer ye is under Odins Bonds and by the water and cliff"
[11:02] яєüιί  Sturlärşşöη stared away of the lights to turn and give a light nod to the newcomers..."Tal Sirs"...spoke in a light tune, welcoming the visitors
[11:03] Sylvia pauses her step before those gathered as her eyes dart about the area mesmorised moreso for the view than anything else..she eeys the enormous man before them guesssing he's the Jarl of the lands and smiles "Tal"..she looks to her father rolling her eyes.."daddy that comes afterwards..stop thinking about only women and drinks!"
[11:03] Ruffus nods.. 'tal people I hope your bosk are fat and your grass is green"
[11:03] Godric nods to the man, pondering the path.. and the lands about him.. his eyes move to his daughter and then the other men... his stance is always that of ready.. for just about anything..
[11:03] Godric: and yoru snow white
[11:04] Kutai looks around for the spot and sees the cliffs, the clear sky, under which omens are best read "this is a fine place to spot birds"
[11:04] Godric smirks, grinning
[11:04] Saba smiles as she looks around she see's the blonde Master she smiles "Greetings Master"
[11:04] Ŕαĝŋαř laughs "Indeed they are and the bonds arses are as well " he replied to Ruffus
[11:04] Ruffus chuckles
[11:05] Ŕαĝŋαř Ťħŏŕşşęŋ winks at the slaves "Tal beasts" before looking to Kutai to see if the location was appropriate
[11:05] eluna: held her ribs as she stopped running, finally locating eeryone and panting "greetings Jarls unt Mistresses"
[11:06] Sylvia looks to her nails hearing his words and smirks waiting patiently for the commencement before her father starts to pant for his daily dose of drink ...
[11:08] Ŕαĝŋαř Ťħŏŕşşęŋ wanders down to the spot he though good for Kutai while the others could watch "anywhere ye like mah friend"
[11:09] Kutai walks to the cliff of the Northern fjord and overlooks it, he sees the magnificient waterfall and the magic of the spot "we are here to help Ragnar, a Torvie. He saw a magical bird, a raven, he followe d it and decided to found his longhall here. Since thereis no rune priest in his village, and i studied the runes also, i offered him to read the flight of the ravens to judge if the chosen spot of his long hall is a right one"
[11:10] Ŕαĝŋαř Ťħŏŕşşęŋ as Kutai speaks he listens intently tearing his eyes from the surprisingly alluring woman close by
[11:12] Sylvia tilts her head to the side and smiles in greeting not uttering a word ..respecting that which was spoken of by Kutai...she looks accross to the giant man in pause noting his fascination with the smaller kind ..or so it seemed ...she looked off into the distance enjoying the serene surrounds whilst her mind remained fixed on her father not making a fool of her yet again ...
Kutai looks over the rim of the cliff and searches for bird nests, he sees some sea gulls, and storm birds, also a lot of puffin nests. He decides to climb down one day, or better order a bond to get the puffin eggs which are delicious, but such can be done in a few months. The sea birds ignoring he searches for the black raven, one of Odin’s birds
[11:16] Ŕαĝŋαř Ťħŏŕşşęŋ's eyes are fixed on Kutai as he listens for yet more words. Not ignoring the group just totally engrossed in the Haruspex and his findings
[11:17] Kutai searches and searches but sees no raven, he knows such birds are cautious, and maybe hiding because f the crowd gathered at the edge of the cliff, making enough noise to chase away a Kur. His hand goes unseen in his pocket and he drops some food of the cliff, meat garbage, probably not loved by the numerous puffins, but certainly by the opportunistic ravens which are scavengers also
[11:19] Kutai suddenly hears a loud ‘kraaa”, his attention becomes sharper, his muscles more tense “would it be a raven, he hopes it, for the same, the whole ceremony would become a disaster for lack of the right birds”. He balances over the cliff and looks down. Now seeing a big black strong bird, picking at the garbage he has thrown below. He turns around to the others “sssst , a raven, one of Odin’s birds”
[11:21] eluna: even from her position she sensed the tightened reaction of the man scouring the landscape. without a word she shadowed her eyes trying to make out what might have caught His attention, her breath seeming to be delayed in her throat as she tried to embrace the importance of the occasion
[11:22] Ŕαĝŋαř Ťħŏŕşşęŋ looks at Kutai as he hears the sound then nods his head at the words .. He knew the Ravens would come. they to him were the symbol of this holds strength and endurance.. if you listened carefully though you would have heard a snmall sigh of relief
[11:23] Kutai wonders if the raven is Huggin or Munnin, the holy birds of the wandering one-eye, who gave his sight to become a seer. Luckily Kutai has both his eyes, he gave less then Odin to get the far seeing sight. Both eyes he will need to follow the flight of the swift raven who has now eaten the food Kutai threw down the cliff at the foot of the fjord.
[11:23] Sylvia watches on intently never having seen a reading performed in the north...be it that it may it was Kutai in it's progress and she had enough respect for the man to listen on with the respect deserved..her head cants to the side smiling to all others in the vicinity as she continues to listen on ...
[11:24] Honey: she stood quietly with the gathering of people, listening and watching Kutai closely, she was always curious of his gift and she knew his findings where always positive , a smile crept across her lips as she waited and watched for the outcome
[11:25] Kutai sees that the raven starts flying again, he has difficulty to follow is flight. Since he has keen eyes for his hunting experience, he manages to follow the bird. The raven flies high, and raises higher and higher till one sees only a tiny black spot high in the sky, the black spot almost reaches the Open Sky, the heaven, the skull of Ymir as Torvies says. Then the black bird disappears
[11:26] Ŕαĝŋαř Ťħŏŕşşęŋ turned his head as he heard the woman by his side move. keen blue eyes caught sight of the thief brand and he frowned before turning back to watch Kutai's neck ckywards
[11:26] eluna: squinted high into the sky, trying in vain to follow the mans focus of sight, but her eyesight was not up for the job and so she listened intently for any further clue
[11:28] Kutai keeps looking intense at the place the raven disappeared. He knows ravens are strong, but even a raven must come back to earth to rests, it’s a assistant to the gods, not the gods, or the Open Sky it self. After 1 min, Kutai sees a tiny black spot again. He sighs of relief that his insight in the birds flight pattern has been right.
[11:30] Nara plump lips parted, ramberry colored eyes wide with excitement. Canting her head, strains to see the bird as it disappears. Her tiny hand shading her eyes. Listens intently to the Haruspex words.
[11:30] Kutai sees the raven coming lower, flying in circles, lower and lower but keeping out of arrow reach of the me below at the cliff over the fjord. Kutai sees that the raven has something in its beak, he wonders what it is, He wonders how a simple bird could find anything so close at the heaven so high in the air
[11:30] Nara gives Hakimba a big hug.
[11:32] Godric watchs the birds.. the eggs... ponders that he never stopped for breakfast this morning... for a moment he wonders if anyone would notice if the eggs suddnely became a omelette... then realizes that might take to long.. he'd have to build a fire first.. certainly be noticable... he ponders where he would build it, and gives his head a shake, and continues to watch the Haruspex... gazing occassionally into the sky to watch the raven also..
[11:32] Ŕαĝŋαř Ťħŏŕşşęŋ's eyes had followed Kutai's line of sight and he also caught sight of the bird circling., all of his men had been warned never to shoot the birds so was surprised it didnt come lower though he waited for it to
[11:34] Godric frowns, seeing eyes of the man move... his hand rests on his belt, near the axe upon his back... he didnt care for the way he looked at his daughter, his very blood, he decides, relaxing, to play it cool, knowing its not good to shed blood during a omen reading.. at least unexpected blood..
[11:34] Kutai notices that the raven carries a small twig in his beak. He wonders what kind. The bird comes lower and suddenly drops the twig, the twig twirls below in slow circles, spiraling to the rocks of the cliff, Kutai and the others are standing, Miraculous the twig drops at the feet of Kutai. It’s as if the raven has meant to deliver a message form the heavens from Gladheim, Asgaard, the land of the Aesir, and of Vanaheim, the home of the Vanir.
[11:37] Kutai bends over an picks up the twig, it’s is an oak twig, two leaves attached to it. There are no oaks at the plains, hardly any trees there. He thinks a long time, then walks to Ragnar and gives him the oak twig “I think this is for you, you first spotted the raven”
[11:37] Nadi: gasps seeing the raven return, and the miracle of the twig falling so close to the Haruspex feet. Thinks to herself, sure he is a magician, a man of many crafts. His vision is always right. Bites her lip to hear what will come next.
[11:38] thumper arriving... already a confused look on her face as to why everyone was here when the mead was hot... and in the longhall... she surveyed the crowd and decided to just be quiet for a change and watch to see what was happening.. .she looked to the woman next to her and offered just a smile in greeting in case this was something important
[11:39] Ŕαĝŋαř Ťħŏŕşşęŋ reaches ot and takes the twig with a respectful nod. Gods and runes he knew but reading Omens were new to him so he smiled vacantly and responded with a "thank ye" as he waited to hesr of the significance of the twig
[11:41] Kutai starts to explain what he think he saw “the raven is only a messenger, a messenger from the gods, the Open Sky to the humans, like us here at the surface of the planet Gor. This believe in higher spirits, gods, the Open sky, unites us in the believers in the priest Kings. Which are not gods in my eyes” he looks stern to the present bonds and slaves, which often are raised in cities and In the heretical believes of the city vermins
[11:42] Kutai: “the raven has flown to the Open Sky, and found their something in the spirit world, probably a atwif from the trees around the home of the Vanir, the gods, you named your house after” he thinks some seconds “I would place this twig above the main door of your long hall, as a symbolic bond with your gods.
[11:42] Ŕαĝŋαř Ťħŏŕşşęŋ nods as he listens mainting a hold of the twig. His eye were fixed on this man of magic, though he did not understand what he did there was no denying he was knowledgeable
[11:43] Kutai: "i think this is a good place to live. Maybe not for us Tuchuks, but for Tirvaldslanders stil
[11:44] Ŕαĝŋαř Ťħŏŕşşęŋ audibly sighs as he receives direction of what to do with the twig "ye can count on it ah will" he nodded furiously "Ah thank ye fer yer efforts will ye all join me in the hall" then clapped his hands for the bonds to run and prepare
