On Thread Etiquette:
I'm not going to weigh in on the logic of either side's arguments, but I will ask that everyone read over what they write and really consider if the words they used are polite and won't be inflammatory intentionally or not. You cant account for people's tolerances perfectly but at least try to say your piece without saying things that can be easily construed as overly dismissive of the other side of the argument, thank you.

Please endeavour to be cordial. :^)

[X] Claim the Title of Heir: [Cost: ???] Gain title: Heir of Thungni, ??? You claim a position that has remained in doubt since Durin died. By Thungni's word, the hammer you would now wield confirms that you are His Heir. Elevating your authority to that of the Ancestor's eldest children, living or dead. You would not, could not be a tyrant of course, but still.

[X] Refuse the Title of Heir: [Cost: Nothing] Gain ???. You will take up this hammer, you will use it, but you are your own Dwarf with your own goals. The burden of carrying Thungni's Will, of being His Heir, is one you choose not to carry. Someone or no one can claim it for all you care, but it will not be you.
Independence ahoy.

The framing matters in terms of building a legend imo. Take inventing the chainforger. For Snorri it was disbelief that a rando runelord managed to match the Ancestors in this one single way. If he was the official heir, the response would instead have been "as expected of the heir of Thungni" and chalked it up the the relation to Thungni more than the skill of Snorri himself. We know narratives matter metaphysically and the former leads to forging your own legend while the latter is hitched to Thungni alone. It's the same as everyone going of course Whitebeard will take Grungni's mantle, he's the rightful heir and son of Grungni rather than him taking it of his own merits. The personal achievements would forever matter less than the relation to the Ancestor in question.

Two Snorris, working to make the Ancestors proud.

I'm fine with Heir winning but I feel it's more in character for Snorri to refuse the title and continue to walk his own path

"Y'know, if I had a gold coin for every Snorri that ended up as the heir to an Ancestor God, I'd have two gold coins, which isn't a lot - Cousin Okri would say otherwise - but it is a little strange, right?"

The real heirs to Thungni anre all the runesmiths learning and sharing their art.

The Dawis must believe in possibility of change or doom themselves.
