It's Still Life

Ragnarök: Found in the Weavers

Of this I will know, the power of weavers,
the wend of beings wise. Weavest of will.

… himin hverfæ ferr menn

And I will come from my roaming
and wandering, speak riddle-reader.

… hykk at illa geti kömr

Magic weaver. Ancient sage.
Who comes to me with a cold heart.

Are they weavers of the moon,
of light and years of waning night.
