Voices of The Norns - Past, Present and Future - Freedom

 

Freedom

Revered Norns,

How can we find freedom in these troubled times?

Sincerely,

Majjsan Maria Kindgren, Sweden

Sweet child of many worlds,

You should know that freedom is not limited by closed borders, or a postponed picnick. We have all lived in lockdown. Yes, even us, the Norns, have hovered closer together under our safe roots. In this state of isolation and darkness there are only two choices. To wither and die, or to let your light shine brighter, until it bursts all borders.

Which is it going to be child? Will you help the fates? Will you be one of the lightbringers? 

There is your freedom. If you want it.

Sincerely,

The Norns, stuck under the roots
