I also had anticipated we might run into raiðo, the traveler. Tiwaz is less welcome.
Are you familiar with its role in the Norse Edda? It is connected to the veneration of the god Týr. In Gylfaginning, Týr's bravery is exemplified by his willingness to have his hand chomped off by Fenrir in order to bind the wolf with the Gleipnir.
I suspect the improvisation you see is a result of blood magic. It's good that you're in no rush to get home. We may be in for a long night.
I'm retrieving a package that must be handled on foot (our traveler friend may be lurking in this one, too), otherwise I would apparate back directly. Please do wait for me.
