By the Spirit of Bear! You make me laugh!
A True Norn does not hide that which protects him so as to appear mighty.
A True Norn fully removes his chest armor. Throws it and his weapons into the Maw of a Giant Frost Wurm, and then RETRIEVES HIS ITEMS.
For A True Norn does not hide behind the protection of Numbers, Stats, or Runes. He opens his heart up to blunt force trauma, and then embraces it as he would his own child!
Norn UP, you coward!
