That's another one of those accent dependent puns that doesn't translate to our side of the Anglosphere I'm afraid ;) I've made a few the other way sometimes.

Third Branch of Mabinogion Highlights
- If you were in the mist for a long time what would you do?
- At one point in the story, the characters had to eat bees since they were in the mist for a long time, what would an “eat the bugs bigot!” style recipe British edition
- Since a theme of this third story is crafts, (shoemaking, enamel making, shields) what crafts were Britian the best at (Bronze Age Pre-Roman)
I wasn’t exactly thinking of Ireland ruling the Isles. The story even says “Island of the Mighty” so it implies to me that Britain could have made their own little pre historic preservation Roman Empire that we don’t know of. I don’t take this idea that seriously, just entertaining a thought :)
What did I do to make people lose interest in this thread? Sorry Im just socially awkward
Lets start a pagan fight club, with book afternoons
According to Norse Mythology, Ragnarök would lead to the death of the gods and this has technically already occurred with the arrival of Christianity which replaced the old pagan religions. It's no coincidence that early Christian missionaries used the story of Ragnarök to convert pagan Europeans and made some reversions such as painting Baldr as a Christ figure who was a kind and merciful god, the beloved Son of Odin, loved by him and all the gods who dies and is resurrected in the new world and the survivors being a man and a woman, Lif and Lifthrasir aka Adam and Eve to repopulate the new world, for instance.
In conclusion. The gods are dead and humanity at large has lost interest in them. The appeal to have a pagan book club is no longer there.
