That steady old Väinämöinen heads south across the ice and snow on a sledge from his exile in the frozen wastes of Pohjola and attempts—without success—to flirt with the lovely lady alive in the sky. #MythologyMonday #ofdarkandmacabre #kalevala 🖼️N.C. Wyeth
The OC vs the Inspiration
Lmao Runo started partly from the idea of wanting to do a bard that plays Kantele as their instrument inspired by Väinämöinen from Kalevala, and the looks and bit of backstory/personality were based on my old Neopet character who was a RoyalBoy Kyrii...

Pike parts were believed to have many magical qualities, especially jaws and teeth, which were believed to be a part of the creation of music. In Kalevala,the Finnish epic, the hero Väinämöinen makes a kantele (a type of string instrument) from a giant pike’s jaw #MythologyMonday
