In the Name of the Heroes – The Winners of the Prize Drawing for the Card Game
Wednesday, 23 June 2010 18:08

The prize drawing for the revised version of the Catan Card Game "The Princes of Catan" has concluded. We received over 185 entries, 145 of which were correct and valid.

Austin Candamir Inga

In Klaus Teuber's corresponding blog post, the names were still blackened out; we had placed small hints here on this website:

Austin Candamir Inga Osmund Harald Siglind

We had asked for:

Osmund Harald Siglind

  1. T – letter 4 of the name of the character with the book: Austin
  2. A – letter 2 of the name of the character with the axe: Candamir
  3. N – letter 2 of the name of the character with the raven: Inga
  4. U – letter 4 of the name of the character with the sword: Osmund
  5. R – letter 3 of the name of the character with the hammer: Harald
  6. I – letter 2 of the name of the character with the sickle: Siglind

Therefore, the solution word was “Tanuri.” Here's the respective quote from the Catan novel:

“It was springtime and [Odin's] blood was seething in his veins, as it does with all creatures, when he caught sight of the daughter of the Fairy King standing alongside a brook. Her name was Tanuri, which means Daughter of the Starlight in the tongue of the fairies. [...] When she returned, she said she would accept his suit if he gave her a land that was perfect. [...] In Tanuri's honor, Odin named the island Catan, which in the tongue of the fairies means Land of Starlight.”
