Greetings Mr. Warlord,


>Hail to all of you brothers of the Nordic Society. From the far lands
>of Chile I greet you and wish well.

Yeah; hail to thee too.


>First of all, allow me to introduce myself. My name is Fernando
>Silva (I prefer the nicknames Raptor the Warlord or Etzel), I´m 17
>and I love everything nordic related. This is the first ML I´ve ever
>entered so I don´t know the system very much. Hopefully I´ll get the
>hang of it pretty soon.

Writing like a normal person usually helps :-) This is just a
language list; if you want to be 'in character' or assume a persona
you might consider getting involved with the SCA.


>To the guys behind the course: Congratulations. You´ve made a great
>work.

Thank you.


>Now, I have some questions and i would thank anyone who can give me
>some answers:
>Are those 11 lessons all there is of the course or there´s more?
>and How fast do the lessons get updated (no precision needed, of
>course)?

Allow me to quote from the page:

The first part of the course has been completed. It consists of the
following material in this suggested order.

Lesson 2
Toon: The Thieves
Toon: King Olaf's dream
Lesson 3
Toon: King Olaf's cheese
Lesson 4
Lesson 5
Lesson 6

Reasons I haven't done any more:

1. I only know two people who have actually finished this first part
of the course.
2. My co-author, Óskar, has moved on to other things and is not
actively contributing material anymore. He does send an occasional
letter to the list, though. Óskar is the one with artistic talent,
I have none. Thus I am unable to produce more toons, which I felt
were an important part of this course. If someone who reads this
would be willing to collaborate with me in making more (with me
contributing the text and/or ideas and you contributing the drawings)
I would be interested in hearing from you. I cannot offer any sort
of payment.
3. My second year of engineering studies is much busier than my first.

Those reasons have led me to put lessons beyond #7 on hold. When I
do work on the course I'm polishing the first 6 lessons and working
on peripheral things (reader, sound files, runes).



>Thanx and HAIL to all of you out there. Please receive the greetings
>from a man from far away who didn´t have the good luck to be born on
>the Real Holy Lands of the North (not religiously related, of course)
>By the way, does anyone like Viking Metal? FAR VEL.
>HAIL AND KILL

Kill? Kill what? How did you come up with that?

Kveðja,
