For the first time, a holistic thesis is presented on the reformation of the runes into the sixteen-rune Younger Futhark of the Viking Age.

The Runic Reformation is a companion volume to Stav: Runes, Martial Art, Philosophy. It expands the thesis of the main work by offering a concise scholarly analysis of the structure of the Younger Futhark in relation to Stav. All logic and references are presented in an academically transparent manner, allowing readers to assess the thesis independently.

The central questions of runology are addressed: why the reformed runic script contains precisely sixteen runes? Was linguistics truly the driving factor? what numerological considerations shaped the new system? Why the graphical uniformity? The material is synthesized into the first coherent thesis that treats these questions as a unified structure. The conclusion follows the logic, what academic literature describes as the Younger Futhark and the tradition known as Stav originate in the same deliberate act of creation.

Those who might disagree are invited to identify weaknesses in the thesis and present a stronger solution to the questions the field of runology has defined.
