I don't think that's how it works, because Hallr doesn't have his own Orthstirr, which is the only thing of yours that's truly yours. If he was just a shade stuck in Ginnungagap that accidentally is re-emboided in Halla, he'd have his own supply. He doesn't, he can guide, he can give information--but he doesn't have any power of his own.
This reminded me of Hallr waking up....
I am here, girl. Let go of your fear.
Crimson orthstirr coats your body in a blazing inferno. Your cloak turns to a fine material you can't place. Your teeth grind together so hard you're almost scared they'll break. Your breathing is deep and your mind is sharpened to a fine edge as knowledge beyond your years fills your thoughts.
Namely, it wasn't Halla who stroked Frami and virthig.
Nor was it her who activated Hone on the axe....
You pivot on your heel and face Abjorn's body as he lies face-up on the ice. He's still alive, if only just. His chest barely rising and falling as his life leaks from his body in splashes of red.
This is not his time.
You walk to him, feeling like a prisoner in your own body. Crimson orthstirr that both is and isn't yours coats the palm of your hand. You press it against Abjorn's chest and his breathing steadies, the wound in his side stitching up before your eyes.
nor did Halla knew how to use Mending Palm before this...
You stand up straight. Your hand falls to your side. The orthstirr leaves your body.
Goodbye, girl.
And you are in control of your limbs again.
Now, i am not saying Hallr took over, more that he nudged Halla and let what little orthstirr he had to her, with some of his knowledge.
if we could access that knowledge on that same depth again...
probably part of finding out what the hell Charred Soul can do.
When you reach the Crucifix, Knightly Armor stops being Knightly and turns into Crucifixion Armor.
....do they get sealed in their own armor.... or does it becomes a part of them?
The end result is similar i imagine, what with a perpetual motion monster being born, but still....
...oooooooooh fuck. The Vatican and royal castles must have some squirreled away, for the rainy days, aren't they?
To clarify the first and second quotes that Slickji nabbed;
If your body were to be completely annihilated and it wasn't your fated day, you wouldn't be dead. Well, your body would be but your consciousness would simply be trapped in Ginnungagap until your fated day, when you can finally die and escape that hell.
Fates worse than death are rather common for Norse cultivators, when you get down to it.
But the body can be healed from anything, even completely regrown, as long as your time has not come to pass. And if the body is regrown, you're freed from Ginnungagap!
Ain't that nifty?
oooch.
So, If we go down the mending palm tree, we might get a regrowth spell as well? that's neat.
Curious if knowing healing (what with the medicine maker and the surgeon in the village) Improves the result of healing magic....
Also makes you wonder if the Norms wanted the Slagson dead at Halfdan's for a reason...
