I don't need to know anything about virii! My CUSTOM PROGRAM keeps me protected! It's not like they'll try to come in through the Internet or something!
You just have to pray with an open heart to let gorm into your soul. Have faith that the gorm will be with you. As it says in the book of gorm, "no man is without gorm who believes in the gorm."

check your gorm carefully for irregularities

Gorm learns of the death of his son Canute



this is the story of Gorm the Old, as told by wikipedia

Gorm's three sons were Vikings in the truest sense, departing Denmark each summer to raid and pillage. Harald came back to the royal enclosure at Jelling with the news that his son Canute had been killed in an attempt to capture Dublin, Ireland. Canute was shot with a coward's arrow while watching some games at night. No one would tell the king in view of the oath the king had made. Queen Thyra ordered the royal hall hung with black cloth and that no one was to say a single word. When Gorm entered the hall, he was astonished and asked what the mourning colors meant. Queen Thyra spoke up: "Lord King, you had two falcons, one white and the other gray. The white one flew far afield and was set upon by other birds which tore off its beautiful feathers and is now useless to you. Meanwhile the gray falcon continues to catch fowl for the king's table." Gorm understood immediately the Queen's metaphor and cried out, "My son is surely dead, since all of Denmark mourns!" "You have said it, your majesty," Thyra announced, "Not I, but what you have said is true." According to the story Gorm was so grieved by Canute's death that he died the following day.

my hypothesis is that it is an extremely sick burn which implies in one word that no one will care when you die, or perhaps more specifically that your father will not. sick burn either way. thanks for asking op, that was really interesting. never stop learning!

maybe the part with the falcons is saying stay close to gorm. gorm is where the heart is, gorm is all you need. gorm was there all along.

if Gorm has three pillaging sons why are only two of them are falcons? it's all Harald this Canute that oh my falcons, all we know about the thirds son is that he's a viking. i want to know more, gorm's legacy calls to me

I like the idea that Thyra keeps trying to tell Gorm that one of his sons is dead using metaphors and Gorm just has no fuckin clue

"no see you have two cows and one of them has met with misfortune"

"alas, a dark day at the pasture"

I like how Canute was shot was shot while watching football despite apparently conquering dublin at the time

sounds like someone was slacking off imo

Gorm was the father of three sons, Toke, Knut and Harald, later King Harald Bluetooth.

it's her own fault, all her metaphors have two things in them and he has three sons. did i mention his name was Toke?

Thyra: Okay so what's do we call that which brings light to the day?

Gorm: Uh, the sun?

T: Yes very good. Now suppose you had two of them in the sky

G:bTwo suns you say? Ah, such brightness we would have!

T: ... and the brighter of the two were suddenly snuffed out

G: O! alas, how I would mourn the dimness of the day, having known two suns, and then only seeing one. Ah what fortune it is that we are accustomed to but one sun

T: :eng99:
