Thank you for reading between the lines. I hid the answer (my answer) in the song ☺️

This was a very striking piece of work. I really enjoyed hearing the old Norse - I loved studying old English and mythology at university. This was a valuable experience.

Thanks so much! Hearing that from someone who knows Old English and mythology is awesome. 😊

Excellent response to the prompt! Loved both the written and sung versions. I like how you answered using the multiple examples found in the Old Norse works.

Thank you! I went back to those myths and noticed the unique way they treat the heart, so I decided to follow that thread. I really appreciate you reading! ☺️

What stays with me is how the heart here becomes more than an organ or a symbol; it becomes what remains after the trial. Perhaps that is the point: we may never truly know where the heart dwells, but we always recognize the place where it has left its presence.
