Both boys are getting 5 points extra credit and a relief from next lesson's homework.

(Line 1): Berkano or Algiz (Protection)
New weak spot 1: Wunjo or Ehwaz (Unifies the ward, power and energy)
New weak spot 2: Othala (Stability, safety)
(Line 2): Algiz (Protection) (Line 2) is actually two lines forming two angles with Line 1;
Line 2a: Mannaz (Creation)
Line 2b: Othala (Stability)
- Pay attention to the runic lines; runic lines have runes lined next to each other without forming any acute angles, they can only be facing up or reversed. Once a rune is askew, it doesn't count as a part of the runic line. For example:
Curse # 2 Line 2: starts at Laguz and ends at Thurisaz.
- Everyone who worked on this homework, very well done! I realize it is not an easy one, I'm proud of every one of you.
