NID
Yes we are back to TASCHMANN stuff here and their strange, macabre fantasy world:

Myth #4. Nidhogg C-H says it means "corpse tearer," but other sources say Nid means "waning" or "dark," and hoggr means "one who strikes down or fells." In other words, a "dark biter." Urd = "fate, destiny." The names of the three Norns can also be translated as "past, future, and present." I seized the runes = runes are the name for the letters an early alphabet, thought to give its possessors, the shamans and druids, a magic power.
What kind of wisdom does Odin want? How is Odin like or unlike a typical shaman? How like or unlike Zeus? How like or unlike Christ? [See note 186-188.]
