Meaning

Will, focus, and honorable defense. Temper heat into skill; protect without cruelty; finish what you start.

Holly is the forge-disciplined will, the spear in winter’s hand. Kennings speak of metalcraft and ordered force. It channels righteous aggression, focus, and protective valor without cruelty.
