Harrowheart's quick cultural lesson is listened to with general attentiveness and some slight nodding. No matter who talks about what it's going to be an educational experience for someone and the Nyströms seem happy enough for it to be their turn.
"We are not like the Viatorus' family," Ragna says swiftly. Unlike with Isidor's curt corrections, Ragna is quick but her voice is warm and steady. It's certainty that has her answering sharply, not irritation. "Not many are. We are volur, Norse shamans. We share our craft with each other and with our children. The talents we each have do not become the only craft we practice."
"But we do each have talents," Carita continues gently. "Gry has a gift with animals."
"Birds," Gry says. "I have a gift with birds."
"Birds, yes." Carita nods and continues, "You should always heed Ragna's advice. Luna knows when it is the best time to do anything. Runa can make anywhere and anyone feel loved."
Fritjof leans in slightly to add, "And I make people laugh." Beside him, Ragna sighs a long suffering sigh and shakes her head in disapproval. Fritjof only grins when he spots it and turns to Harrowheart again. "She's laughing on the inside."
