Armanen Rune: Ka:

With the root of a trunk still with juice;
Then I am unscathed, the man himself is consumed
By the evil with which he threatened me.

 God/dess Meditation: Wotan; Alle-Vater God!  Wandering God!  Rune god! Wolf God! Raven god! Wotan!! Husband to Frija, the Alle-Mutter.  Son to Paru and Bezzia, brother to Willo and Wîh; We call out to you, not as slaves or on bended knee, but on our feet and open-armed as befits your offspring. Watch us as we struggle, but the fight and fame must both be ours! Grant us that victory which we win by OUR might and mane! After a life battle-worn, Wotan, grant us access to our Great Ancestral Hall, where we may feast, drink the glorious mead and be merry with our heroes and our Altmâgâ. WE GIVE YOU A MOST HEART-FELT HEIL, Wotan, as we honor the Wotan that resides in us all!
