Folcweard is a traditionalist writer, theologian, and cultural reconstructionist dedicated to the revival and defense of the native Germanic spirit. Drawing from ancient sources, linguistic precision, and mythological depth, he works to restore the sacred order that once governed the lives of his ancestors. His worldview is rooted in the belief that faith, folk, and family are inseparable — that religion is not chosen, but inherited; not reinvented, but remembered. With a solemn devotion to ancestral law, tribal identity, and the divine hierarchy of the Gods, he brings together rigorous scholarship and poetic insight to articulate a vision both ancient and enduring. Guided by a fatalistic reverence for wyrd and a commitment to virtue, he stands as a guardian of the folk in both word and deed.
