The title is actually Der Nøkken lurer but DA is stupid and wont lemme use special characters...grrr...
This one took meh a while...considering I had no idea what to call it O_O Then Maja came Up with the idea of using Nøkken as my theme... Nøkken is cunning. Humans are her prey. When the sun sets, you must beware. She could be lying under the large, shining water lilly that you reach for with your hand. The moment you touch it, the quagmire will give way beneath you, and she will grasp you with her wet, slimy hands. Or when you are sitting alone by the pond one evening - memories rise to the surface, at first one by one, then whole hosts of memories with the same warmth and radiance as the reflected sunlight between the leaves and the water lillies. Watch yourself! Nøkken is playing with your feelings. The pond conjures forth the memories, and Nøkken lies in wait beneath. She knows how easy it is to trap us in its beautiful, quivering reflections. (Thanks Maja) Many Thanks to  , Brushes ©  , Stocks ©  |

She could be lying under the large, shining water lilly that you reach for with your hand.
The moment you touch it, the quagmire will give way beneath you, and she will grasp you with her wet, slimy hands.
Or when you are sitting alone by the pond one evening - memories rise to the surface, at first one by one, then whole hosts of
memories with the same warmth and radiance as the reflected sunlight between the leaves and the water lillies.
Watch yourself! Nøkken is playing with your feelings. The pond conjures forth the memories, and Nøkken lies in wait beneath.

Runes
Pure Pagan Art --> ~TheGuild
Pure Pagan People --> ~Suomalaaset
And the final form of futhark, the dotted runes (also known as gullskoen) would have had a special rune even for "ø"
...ok, now you can hit me and drive me away with the shotgun
