Story 96: Do the Norn Believe in Fate?

“Were the Norse a fatalistic people?”

Is this episode Fates 2.0? Not exactly…

Other topics include the Norn as caretakers of the World Tree, which Norn is working two jobs, a more nuisance interpretation of name meanings, and examining Riordan's choice to use the Norn the same way the Fates were used in PJO (we don't love it).

Spoilers for Kingdoms of Amalur, American Gods (novel), Wicked + Divine, and Ys 10.

Content Warning:
This episode contains mentions of and conversations about death, fate, suicide, and murder.
