Wyrd - The Web of Fate
Wyrd is the cosmic web connecting all beings and events; what we do ripples through all existence.
Wyrd is the great web of fate that connects all things. Every action we take sends ripples through this web, affecting future possibilities. Wyrd is not fixed fate but the result of all past actions creating present conditions. We shape wyrd through our choices.
Wyrd weaves as she will; what shall be, shall be, yet we hold the threads of our own weaving.
Wyrd represents a dynamic, interactive concept of fate rather than fixed destiny.

- What Norse wisdom says about being wronged
The last word, and the one that reframes the rest. Wyrd is not fixed fate but the accumulated result of everything already done, so your answer to being wronged is itself a thread going into the weave. You are not only settling the past; you are laying the pattern the next person inherits.
