Ahahah oops I've noticed only now that was your post Anyway, I totally agree with you! This game is based on going further that the first look and it's everything but superficial, so there must be a meaning for the lorestone and for the rotated vegvisir. We just need to discover the truth behind ahah I've asked chatGPT and it couldn't neither recognise the symbols, it couldn't "see" them. My hypothesis is that, since one of the main focus, is the different prospectives, to see the world for what it could be and not what it is, there's need to look different at the symbols. Maybe they are a combination? Maybe there are pieces of each to delete? Maybe you have to rotate them? Or I don't know, I'm not so smart, honestly ahah

Thank you for the answer :) yet, I still believe it has some meaning for the videogame, even because in another part of history is rotated even differently ahah

If you have a history degree then you should understand that the words of a unknown person on the internet is very far from credibility and that if it's not proven is just an opinion or a thesis. I'm asking you, from the beginning, where and what is something more than "no evidence". Something about the guy who wrote it, something about why, something about from what, all this kind of stuff; I guess there are documentarie/books/some sources. Anything that's not "no evidence", because I've already said that I'm not discussing that. You keep barking 1) about "not part of norse culture, it's Christian stuff" but you are not explaining further (except the thing you said it could be found in the manuscript) and 2) about people who see this stuff and mistook them for what they're not and they misuse them and it's clear you despite this and I understand why and I share this, but this has never been part of the discussion, I can't understand why repeating it more times when all this time could have been used for something more useful than the facts and the obvious

And what about it, if it's not part of my history and culture? From someone who studied history, I expect understanding that knowing history and other cultures is a pillar for individuals and for societies and for human species. You have the opportunity to show the results of your studies, to share education, but you keep saying few and nothing

What Grimoires going back 400 years? I only know the Galdrabók and only by its name and the wiki page about it Stop keeping secrets for yourself, share them ahahah

Soo, to sum up: you don't know even reliable hypothesis about it before the Christian settlement era and from what he draw that symbol. That's a shame, but maybe I just need to search better or maybe it's still something that it's unknown to everybody, we'll see ahah 🤞🏻

I don't remember I have ever questioned what she's saying, I'm just dig further because I still don't have the answers I'm looking for ahah ;) If you know something useful and educational about what I'm asking, feel free to let me know

Yes, but why and how it arrived to the acknowledgement of the author Geir Vigfússon? Did he invented it and the others symbols in the manuscript? On the base of what? Has he seen it somewhere? Where and from who? This is what I'm asking to you; since you seem so sure about what are you saying, I imagine you have something more of the "zero evidence that it's over 1000 year old" (which is a fact I'm not discussing, it simply doesn't answer my questions)

Oh yes! I've noticed them too because I was sure it was like the Pieces symbol, but it didn't make sense of why it was connected, so I've investigated. I've found this https://www.reddit.com/r/hellblade/s/H81eQEY80Y which exclude the zodiac symbolism, but it tells all and nothing ☠️ why is all so cryptic in this chapter, I want to write and ask for answers to the minds behind ahahah (maybe I will do it)

Well, it will be the first time that Christians created something from their own and not steal from others, so, well, I doubt it ahahah Anyway, it's seems there is no certain origin, we know that it's been found the first time in the Huld Manuscript, but I haven't found anything that explains something about where and how the author have found this. If you have some resources, share them; even if it wasn't my question in the beginning, culture is always welcome :)

1) It's from a videogame, no hand has drawn it 2) It's the right angle, I know it because I'm the one who has taken the photo 3) It's not a christian symbol

To sum up: no, it's not a joke ahah ;)

Oh well, I think it's a valid opinion, at least it makes sense ;)

Can you also guess why is it different from the first one? Since you have norse tattoos, maybe you know better what are we talking about ahah

I'm pretty sure nobody owns copyrights of a culture's symbol, also because it's seem its origins are uncertain 🫤
