“It’s said that you know of runes.” The voice was filled with bluster and daring.
“It’s said I know of many things, some I do, and some I don’t.”, was my reply.
“I bring to you a challenge, runesciber. Would you dare to take it?”
“And what challenge do you dare call me by that name for?”
“Twenty four runes be the Elder Futhark. Twenty four marks did Odin scribe on you.
How much has been forgotten since? I give you a word, you tell me the runes.”
“A challenge I accept then. What be the word to call the runes for?”
“Health.”
