Question: Do the Norvägen have a native tongue, whether it be long dead or very much alive?

It is a very likely possibility that I didn't see the section on languages because I'm bad like that.

pfffff~

On another matter now, What is the Norvagen's opinion of the Great Lion Empire?
Nice try. ;)

Yes, but it is a rather long time dead.

Only very educated scholars, nobles or Watchers of the Path would know it, although a few more would know the runes.

Sorry if this has already been addressed, but I'm super tired so I'm going to ask-

Is there any significance or symbolism in regards to hair? For example, the Samurai placed stock in the top knot and it showed the owner possessed certain values or characteristics. Does anything like this exist with these people?

Ahhh, sorry!

Well, this one is fairly simple. Nerp~!

It's literally a case of practicality.

Oi, ya still need ta answer how homosexuality is seen by the Norvägen.
"It's different, therefore it is unnatural."

With the minor change that:

"But we won't burn you for it because magic is the only big bad wolf in this neighbourhood."

There is no official law/teaching against it, and the more educated of them would not be likely to take part in any active discrimination, but the general Norvägen would react to it pretty much the same as the rest of the typical medieval folk. Reactions would range from confusion/surprise to anger/fear.

Do the Norvägen like unicorns?

EDIT: Also, Do you pronounce the G like a J or not?..
Of course they do.

And like a "G".

I think I might like it here
Norvagen sounds so close to Norwegian, is that the point? I read up and the cultures sound similar but contrast unique by the certain entities of the culture's deities.... also some formalities and ethnicity ideals are similar... i'm not talking modern day, i'm talking medieval in Altera and this World

Not the point, but potentially a point. :p

There are several links to Norse culture/mythology, but several differences. It's inspired/influenced by it, not based on it, however.
