Norse Stuff

We should all be more like the dwarves in Rick Riordan’s fictional worlds.

Dwarves are craftsmen . . . . We’re serious about the things we make. You humans–you make a thousand crappy chairs that all look alike and all break within a year. When we make a chair, we make one chair to last a lifetime, a chair unlike any other in the world. Cups, furniture, weapons . . . every crafted item has a soul and a name. You can’t appreciate something unless it’s good enough for a name.
