Elder Futhark — Runes: Thursday, October 22

Raidho is riding, and the Anglo-Saxon poem is dry about it: riding is easy for every warrior in the hall, and very hard for the one on the horse over the long miles. The rune is motion with a route and a rhythm somebody has to keep. Today you are on the horse. The stretch ahead is unglamorous and the planning for it was the easy part. Keep the pace you can hold, not the one you can start at, and do not stop to discuss the road with people who are sitting in the hall.
