Runestone translation

Post by Nevenge »

I have seen other threads like this but many are quite old, anyway I wouldn't ask but the location and state of the surroundings of the stone have made me very curious. Could somebody possibly translate for me please? :).

The festering stupid flowed forth from the fingers of man, and Nev was greatly amused.

You should not translate it literally.

Somebody presumed what you did something nutz or insane just because you were bored.

Okay, I'll take from this they basically don't want anyone around the area where this runestone is, curious because the place seems very well abandoned, half built buildings and a collapsing pallisade. Wierd. Anyway thanks a lot :).

More precise translation is "Why the fuck would you waste your time here?".
It's more mockery and curiosity, very little to do with threats.
