Designer's Notes

I tried to make a simple font representing the younger futharc - short twig, the one runetype used in Sweden and Norway from around 8th to 12th century. The alphabet has only 16 charachters, so i tried to make the english a-z with it's runes correnspondent, so you will notice some of the runes will represent multiple latin charachters. Also the letter Y will represent the letter ''Thorn'' which is based on the lettr y was actually used to represent thorn in the old days like in ''Ye olde shoppe'' etc. I hope maybe this might come useful for some, atleast it kinda looks cool and mystic in my opinion, so if anything is not 100% accurate, the visuals will have all the attention anyways
