Female giants, they brought the wonderful Golden Age to an end. They cast lots over the cradle of every child that was born, and placed gifts in the cradle. Their names were Urda, Verdandi, and Skuld, representing the past, the present, and the future. Urda and Verdandi were kindly disposed, but Skuld was cruel and savage. Their tasks were to sew the web of fate, to water the sacred ash, Yggdrasil, and to keep it in good condition by placing fresh earth around it daily. In her fury, Skuld often spoiled the work of her sisters by tearing the web to shreds.

I think this would be a lot more funny if I knew which class this was...

2) The difference between the symbol H and the symbol @

It is obvious. H is bigger than @. For short giants, I am guessing that the @ two squares left of the ( is Dudley.

Looks like all words that have entries in the NetHack built-in glossary are hyperlinked to them. Neat.
