[ Sif doesn't really use her locket too terribly often, but these past few days spent digging up old bones and transporting them back to the crypt of Caer Glaem has made her somewhat philosophical, especially since she has a promise to keep and she is very much a woman of her word.

Her chief helper in the task of transporting bones can be seen as well, since she decided to record this message on a whim just as she was dismounting her cleg. The big animal seems to have decided that she is a worthy enough mistress, since it is rubbing its great head against her arm with enough force that even the sturdy Asgardian has to brace herself a bit against it.

Stop that, my friend.

[ There is a somewhat uncommon softness in her tone as she gently shoves the cleg's head away from her before addressing the network. ]

I was tasked by Black Shuck with honoring the plains of Cathraon after the revels of Samhain were over and done with, to mark the sorrow of those lands and to pay it homage. I have been carrying bones from unmarked graves to a final resting place for days now, since it is his will that we do so, but I am uncertain if that is enough to see my oath fulfilled. It is up to me to decide how this should be done, but if you would be willing to share with me how you would do such a thing I would gladly listen. I know many among you belong to peoples strongly connected to the land you walk upon.

[ She's friends with elves after all. The cleg tries to get her attention again, and she smiles a little while she turns away briefly to again make it stop pestering her. ]

On a less somber note I would also ask if any of you ladies in this world know of a way to avoid getting with child should one desire to take a lover. I am unfamiliar with the methods of this realm.

[ Asgardian bluntness strikes again. ]

Thank you, and a good day to you all.

Not for rocks an' soil, but for the spirits that reside within them.

[He pauses for a beat, raising an eyebrow.]

They involve blood.

[Ooooooooooof course they do.]

[ Well, if they're just speaking academically, after all... Vol'jin shrugs a bit. ]

Don't much matter. Can be yours, or an enemy, or a sacrifice. [ Caaaasually neglecting to mention whether or not the sacrifice is sentient or not. ] Though, if ya use your own, it's to tie ya and your'n to that land. 'S a thing not to be entered into lightly.

[Well, not always. After all, semi-sentient is A Thing.]

Right. And I'd think a god o'death wouldn't much care for that. [A beat, then the light seems to go on.] Ya might try ya castle library? If ya don't find nothing, I can ask around in ours.

[Ah, but all the courtly love and humility would grate on him after a while. You could join them in the Party Court instead?

He smiles.

So, did ya get any advice on the other thing?

[Some things aren't surprising! Like people's interest in sex, and by extrapolation, avoiding the consequences thereof.]

Don't suppose ya could pass it along?
