Hmm...
She did not know the answer to the first question, but she did have a guess for the second one. So, she raised her hand answered,
"Runes are used for divination," that's what her Nan had told her,
"Or as represention of something or...as protection?" she had an idea, but wasn't sure how to explain it.
"Like at my Gram's house there are runes at the gate...they either represent something or are for protection, so isn't that a way of using them?" she asked. Either protection or her Gram was using them as a pretty decoration for the gate.
