Erik Away Poetry Bits (Shard)
Erik Away Poetry Bits

The Erik Away adventure was inspiring and got me to write up a whole bunch of poetry. Here they are from the PMs.

Rekavidr's Winter Rain

Sun-dawn spring fawn summer,
Still to winter we till.

Nothing be we saw before,
Not snow now we saw fall,

Chill flesh it chose in flash,
Clatter clap ground splatter.

Rain felt pain, railed against,
Rather now steam streaming.

Erik's Journey (Pt 1)

Proof of praise-worth for roof,
Pushes him through bushes.

Mountain monster-fountain,
More prey to slay and flay.

Onward on that trail drawn,
Only lonely end saw:

Bathe in fine battle-wine,
Born anew and blade-worn.

---

Explosive Karta

Crowned crest freed drowned aground,
Caught scent by unsought foe.

Wrought offer of peace naught,
War swore came crashing club.

Blood-glory glow shrouds step,
Buys lies of bleak weakness.

Slice arm slit up step twice,
Sudden heart goes and blows.

---

Hulfr's Wooden Ball

Swish of hand, swap and shown,
Shaped hollow good-wood sphere.

Gifted dreams to see drift,
Gave instead swift-form-rift.

Fight for fore-might it made,
Fateful fathers fought fraught,

All for wonder ball-wood,
At day's dawn fades away.

Hunt for Eric (Originally Here)

Your leal tale leaves me pale,
You'll see husband by Yule.

Will chase space with traced pace,
With whift of drift-word guide.

Through trembling trees I'll breeze,
Tear through proud's shroud in rags.

Dragonteeth, Dragonkiss,
Dream son's dread, I'll deem found.

NorseQuest: Outlaw
For the record, IF has also made some Discord statements about doing another, different, Quest in the NorseQuest universe, NorseQuest: Outlaw, a more traditional Quest featuring an Icelandic man who has been framed for theft and outlawed, and intends to prove his innocence.
Speaking of this, it's started.
