Hervor: The Warrior Heiress of a Cursed Sword

Who was Hervor? A shepherdess turned warrior, ready to challenge the dead for a cursed sword. Discover her incredible story!

Hervor, the daughter of a legendary berserkr, learned that her destiny was tied to Tyrfing, a sword forged by dwarves and steeped in a terrible curse. In this video, we explore her extraordinary transformation from shepherdess to warrior, her journey to the island of Samsø, and her bravery in reclaiming what was rightfully hers. We uncover the ancient legends surrounding the sword Tyrfing, its dark power, and how Hervor faced epic challenges to prove herself worthy of her inheritance. Join us on this journey through Norse mythology, where honor, courage, and mystery intertwine. By the end of the video, you'll understand why Hervor's story is one of the most fascinating in Nordic tradition.

Witches and pagans, which authors do you recommend avoiding?

I was reading “Taking Up the Runes”, but in the process some of the writing rubbed me the wrong way, so I decided to do some research on the author, Diana L. Paxson. After seeing the testimonies made against her, I stopped reading it. Are there any other problematic authors to watch out for? I don’t want to waste my time or money reading from unreliable sources.

Admiralen Anmelder

Matroser! Der er kommet et nyt skud på stammen af æbleskivefamilien, og det er ikke nogen vanlig æbleskive. Tillad mig at præsentere:

Hvorfor, spørger du måske? Fordi de kan.

De skal have 4 minutter i mikroovnen på 600, lad jer IKKE narre af instruksen på pakken, der siger 2 minutter. Det er en løgn, og resulterer i lun æbleskive med en midte af frossen miserabel nutella-efterligning.

Og når nu vi er i gang med fyldet, så er det ikke nogen ubehagelig oplevelse, hvis man, som admiralen, i hine barndomstider var forfalden til varm toast med fake Nutella. For det er præcis hvad det her smager af. Fyldet er ikke flydende, det er ikke silkeblødt eller lækkert, men det er, som varm kopi-nutella oftest gjorde det, blevet et med æbleskivens indre i en art blød indre skorpe, som smager præcis som daggammelt nyristet toastbrød med kakaocreme pålæg fra Netto. Hvilket forøvrigt også er der, hvor man kan finde disse æbleskiver. Selve æbleskivedejen smager også lidt hen i retning af toastbrød, hvilket en æbleskive helst ikke skal, og ved siden af mine foretrukne Karen Wolff æbleskiver fremstår de som intet andet end en bleg, skuffende klump stegt dej.

5/10 nydes bedst i bagstiv tilstand eller klokken 1 om natten i desperation over, at der ikke er andet i fryseren. Og pas på, når du bider i dem. Kakaocremen får omtrent samme temperatur som islandsk lava.

For ekstra morskab kan man spille æbleskiveroulette med andre typer frosne æbleskiver, her ses fire forskellige slags:
