Thanks for the suggestions; I've used the "Brisingamen" line and
"Valkyrie needs food badly" (the actual Gauntlet reference), so you'll
get credit for them.  The other two became--

"Storm's brewing, better head for home!"
and:  "Nine worlds I remember, nine worlds of the tree..." (since the
hour is between 9:00 and 9:59 PM)

I also added a generic message for time between 7:00 and 8:59 PM,
which Zop had forgotten:  "It sure is dark out here..."

Thanks again for your suggestions; I appreciate all the help I can
get.
