Bravo! Eorl indeed. I had Felarof's winged deet in mind but everything else is exact.
The riddle was sort of inspired by your last one, got me digging through half-forgotten texts. I think the oath on Halifirien is a beautiful passage, and you really get a sense of the now multiple reasons it's called Holy.
Over to you!
