Here is the prayer, begun by Tristissima, and added to by myself, for all of those fallen to hatred, fear, and misunderstanding.
What is remembered, lives.

I echoed your prayer (with additions) again on my blog earlier today as well…
Also, if you have a moment, I’d be interested in your thoughts on this post in relation to these matters as well.
My addition would be: Hekate, give your support to the decisions of the dead.
I must ask about Ymir here. The only place I know the name is the first giant, the father of all giants, in Norse mythology, who the Three Fathers kills and makes the world from, but that doesn’t *seem* to fit the way you’re using it. Who is Ymir in this context?
FFF,

Ymir is considered by some to be a hermaphrodite (or perhaps even pre-gender) as Ymir comes before the other giants, and births the male and female giants.
