It’s a pretty old term so it technically has three different pronunciations bloot like blood, blot like to to blot out the sun, and blut like blunt without the n. Though you’d have to ask someone who is a bit more familiar with medieval Germanic languages.
Cant remember the name of the particular story but there’s actually a myth centered around a Blót where basically a war chief is destined by the Norns to be sacrificed. They try to trick the gods and it goes bad for him.
I propose Blót. Hanged speared then we feast, but not on the corpse that’s for Odin.
Thoroughly macabre. I love it!
How is Blót pronounced? Haven’t come across this term before

Very interesting. I’ll have to look more into this when I have the time. Thanks for sharing what you know!
