This is how the Godstones looked like when Rook's and Hakon's caravan visited them.īelow follows a list of the items found at the Godstones, along with their descriptions and how they can be discovered. Those who seek out the stone call Stravhs the god of trade while the Menders call him the god of secrets.

While Denglr deals in fortune, Stravhs taught men the value of trade in a different way: he showed them it has consequence, two sides of the same coin. The myths say he traded these weapons to the gods, and they used them to kill each other. The god Stravhs is wreathed by imagery of silver weapons. The gales have worn away the black stone, but there is silvery metal embedded on the rock face that endures the weather. It stands on a cliff edge with a sudden drop behind it. It seems like more than coincidence that the long fields around Bjorulf's stone have always been excellent for growing anything one could need for a good drink.įew know the godstone of Stravhs exists, even amongst those who have lived their whole lives in Boersgard.

Though he was always depicted as being stern, Bjorulf was one of the most popular gods of men and Varl the one who taught them how to brew. Looking up at the godstone, one can see Bjorulf's head surrounded by images of casks and drinking horns. Usually it describes the history of the gods but it can be about nearly any topic. The odd thing, he tells you, is that the writing occasionally changes depending on who is reading it.

Past the largest stone a long series of slabs contain more writing all the way down the hill. It's how the menders learned the language of the gods. Ingrid's godstone is carved with ancient runes which don't make much sense to you, though Eyvind tells you some of the menders have deciphered them. Dundr took some of her creations and gave them beards and showed them the secrets of smithing, though many remember him just as fondly for teaching them games and songs of mirth. While the Loom-mother was the first to create, she soon found a counterpart in Dundr, who embodied her ideals in a masculine form. The Varl here now are the last ones that will ever exist.Īlong each strand of Dundr's massive beard is carved a different part of his story, and you turn your head to and fro to read it. One thing is certain, each Varl alive today was created by Hadrborg, and now the god is dead. He created a few beasts but soon became bored with simple animals and began combining man and beast, ending up with the Varl. The little you know about Hadrborg is that he was a disciple of the Loom Mother, and learned to create under her guidance. It's hard to imagine the Nordfelling Wastes being filled with water at one time, but the godstone stands as a reminder of the vast lake it used to look across. Jagged stones jut out of the snow like shark fins. The godstone of Marek looms into view, upon it carved a great ocean beast. Despite all that, the biggest mystery has always been how his godstone came to be found at the bottom of a dried-out lake. Radormyr was always one of the lucky gods, the kind who people thanked for good weather, healthy livestock and a good harvest. Most think he was a serpent that lived in the sun and it's not uncommon to hear speak of seeing the tail of a great creature slipping through the thin clouds on a sunny day. Nobody can really agree on what Radormyr looked like, as fond as he was of his own isolation. The word 'fortune' has a lot of meanings. They believed he brought luck, wealth, or whatever other wish you had, but couldn't get on your own. Denglr was always the favorites amongst men.

The godstone, looming overhead, gives off an ancient sense of being watched over, in a comforting way. He was always depicted in effigy with his terrible spear. Hridvaldyr was the god of hunters and of wild beasts, a master of the surrounding woods, occasionally seen roaming the land as both man and wolf.

When hunters come through they sometimes stop to give offerings, out of habit more than anything else now that the gods are dead. Not much reason to travel this far east, into the wild forests. The weathered stone doesn't see many visitors.

The godstone looms overhead, the massive eyes of Hridvaldyr looking far off. The first time you visit a Godstone, you will unlock the respective achievement. They are listed in order of appearance, with a brief description. Be sure to closely examine them and open yourself to their 'meaning' and, who knows, maybe the stone will bestow its god's favor upon you.īelow follows a list of the Godstones that your caravans will encounter along their journeys, during the first part of The Banner Saga. However, it feels like the Godstones still maintain some of their namesake god's mysterious powers. Each one of them is dedicated to one of the (now dead) gods. The Godstones are giant rocks engraved with ancient carvings on their flattened faces.
