Stack o’ Dice

Special: This episode is a bit of a sneak peek into Season 6, anticipating an early episode in which it'll be used. It was fun--but challenging--to write, but shares some things that will quickly become relevant.

Here's the text:

Urðaþollr 

Along the high Spine,      heaven-reaching world-roof, 

How sad it is to sing      of souls now lost, 

I feel upon my head      the heft of godly sight 

Their hands will find a way      to form the fate-tree,

For your reference, here are the links to the various accounts:

• The Lives and Opinions of Eminent Philosophers, by Diogenes Laertius (Prologue)

We provide these links so you can read along if you'd like, and to do some reading around the passages to increase your awareness of the context. Seriously, this is captivating stuff, and we hope you enjoy it.
