Old Man Finds a Wanderer: Part 2 Hella

This is part two of Old Man Finds A Wanderer:

Hagalaz tattoo: Gothi got this rune because they developed a closeness to Hella. Hagalaz is very much Hella’s rune. It was not until after Gothi got the tattoo that they noticed. All of the tattoos happened organically. Gothi is inspired and then follows inspiration. Gothi noticed a theme had developed. “On the right I had Tiwaz. Tyr is a model Aesir. If you would ask who embodies the Aesir it would be Tyr, though Odin would transcend all of that. Which is the same side as my Thor’s hammer.” The Hagalaz tattoo is on their left.

Hella Tattoo

Hella tattoo: Shortly after getting the Hagalaz, Gothi got the Hella tattoo, because the bond kept getting closer. Hella is holding the Ear position.

Bind Rune tattoo: The Ear rune at the top means the grave. Gothi does not really mess with the Anglo-Saxon runes but in this case it was imperative. It was the first tattoo that was not Gothi’s idea. Gothi was told to do this by the gods, so they did. This one is the Hell road.

Bind Rune tattoo: This is the balancing rune to the rune above. This tattoo was also an imperative. Gothi was told by the gods to create this. Gothi did contribute to this tattoo’s creation.

Gothi is not really sure what the bind runes are for. Gothi just knows they are imperative.
