Hail Frigg Prayer

Written to the feel and scheme of the Catholic Hail Mary. I grew up Catholic and often miss the flow of the Hail Mary in prayer so I altered it to fit All Mother.

Hail Frigg, full of grace divine,

The All Mother, forever shine.

Blessed art thou in wisdom's light,

Guidance and comfort, day and night.

Holy Frigg, source of strength and might,

In your embrace, we find respite.

All-knowing Mother, hear our plea,

Guide us on life's vast, unknown sea.

Frigg, with love, your children bless,

In your wisdom, we find success.

Support us in each trial we face,

Grant us your mercy and embrace.

Update, with some questions answered:

First off, if you're still here, THANK YOU. Your patience is deeply appreciated.

Q: Is this series still being worked on?

A: YES. We're terribly sorry for the lack of updates and really hope that things will pick up soon.

Q: So, why hasn't there been updates?

A: While this is technically a group project (of about nine people) at the moment it's mostly two or three active people working on things behind the scenes and all three of us have been crazy busy with life. A few members of the group are of a consulting nature too.

I (the one posting this) am "Red". The red tomte (classic). I do the majority of the artwork, character creation, and lore. When we came up with this series, it was always known that it would start really slow because of how busy I have been the last few years. To be vague, I essentially have a full-time-always-on-call job, along with a somewhat part time job, and now a start-up. But when I'm not burned out, I work on TNC.

Next year, however, my full-time job will slow down a bit, so I'll have more time to put into TNC.

Q: So, do you have anything drawn?

A: Yes.

Q: Why don't you post it?

A: Several reasons, really. I want to bulk up content to release slowly later, I have ADHD and it is often pretty hard to write up descriptions and information, and.... I'm a little nervous about posting.

If you are at all interested, I have a MASSIVE Pinterest board for the series that you can check out here: https://pin.it/3ZI5yeXYl

There may be spoilers there, so just a little warning.
