The Noble Virtue of courage is definitely an attitude of boldness – not, however, the absence of fear. The Noble Virtue of courage represents driving forward in spite of your fears. It is courage that allows us to live life in such a manner that we can be proud. Courage comes to those who have faced down their fears, and have overcome them. (C.Reimer/V.Elmersson)
Havamal 106
With the mouth of the auger I made space for myself
And gnawed through the stone;
Over me and under me went the paths of the giants,
Thus, I risked my head (Larrington pg. 28).

Ziu, god of selflessness; of war & glory, one-handed god, sacrificial god, Sergeant at Arms at the Thing, enforcer of law & order, bravest of all gods; you chained the Fenris Wolf that threatened the worlds. We can’t do that, but we can do other things, some ordinary, others heroic. Remind us of your bravery and your sacrifice. Give us the courage and strength we need to fetter out own Fenris. Keep us mindful of our duties and help us keep our fears bound as tightly as you bound old Slaver Mouth. Thus doing, may we share in your glory by imitating you. WE GIVE YOU MOST A HEART-FELT HAIL, ZIU, as we honor the Ziu that resides in us all!
