What they are:
The Fuþark is an alphabet derived from a Italian source, which moved into Germanic regions then up to Scandinavia. Originally they were used for marking property and, according to Roman sources, connections to the divine for aid and information. They survived the conversion to Christianity as a letter system with power and meaning, showing up on stones outside of churches with crosses around them, and were used to mark holy places and write important things and notices until the 1400's. They have found a revival of interest and are often used now for their original purpose.

What you need to do:
Comment, and either ask for a rune in general or ask a question. Yes/no doesn't work with them. I will relay to the best of my ability, though more information means easier comprehension for me.
Feel free to link or point out if you think anyone else would find this of interest.

Thanks to haikujaguar for the general idea.
