“Est. 1270.” That’s the first time I recall seeing a date attached to anything in Arkerra. I’m assuming, though, that we’re not mean to understand it as Gregorian, since Christianity doesn’t exist in this world.
Yea, it is written, Frigg doth bequeath many blessings: the illuminating judgement of cremation (while Scarlett was still alive, mind you), the blessing of an open mind (i.e. skull splitting), the gift of a different outlook on life (by realigning one’s face), the liberation of speech (example: FFUUUUUUUUUU), and the holy protection of meat shielding. May she receive the eternal reward of an unblocked box.
I read alicemacher’s comment at the top and that got me to thinking about what else the ‘Est’ could mean.

Who’s Greg?
Greg O’Rian (or O’Ryan), patron saint of mucking about with calendars. Successor to Jules Lian. Distant cousin of Ann O’Mundi.

Wouldn’t be 0 (zero) though? Because no-one gives a Frigg >.>

Also, huzzah! Once again my random avatar has a beard.
It was established a little over an hour after noon…

Truly, Frigg gives generously.
Your avatar! So much win!
My avatar fits, too.
Many limbs joining at the center. Why do I find that ominous?
Its the exact opposite of the cult of infinite limbs.
Maybe it is the blood dripping from their hands?
well, ketchup is certainly is not I have not seen or heard of any ketchup at all in this series.
that tends to happen in a blood pact
Something tells me this town is going to be up in flames before the end of the chapter.
Looks to me like it already is.
Nah, just ominous sky and clouds.
Population: Some
Estimated population: 1270
Population: 312
No, that’s Established, as in when it was founded (people seem to lose lots of cities and towns)

I really liked it.
Morganshire – built by the same contractors as the Tower of Pisa.
No, the town isn’t leaning, the mountain is
Those clouds are doing wonders for the ambiance.
