Hello Bernard,

 

Nice writing to you! My question: do you make up pagan and warrior spells like when, in The Last Kingdom, Ealdwulf put his own spells into the sword Serpent Breath, he made for Uhtred. Likewise, Brida took the blade into the woods for a whole night and put the spells of a woman on it. Then, on the request of Uhtred, Ragnar used Serpent-Breath at Yule to kill a prisoner, so to bring the blade to the attention to Odin in order for him to look well on her. Presumably, actually, Brida’s spells would be Christian? but did you invent these spells or have some of these spells been documented?

Thanks for your time!

Leni.
