I’ll post the full text of that in the comments below.] Today I, and every other HWA member, received the HWA newsletter in our inboxes.

It’s 9th century Norway and Rúnr Njalson has been gifted supernatural warrior abilities as Odin’s chosen Berserkr. Enemies and allies quake in fear at his approach.
