Kalevala Animated - Pt 2: Battle of the Wizards
#kalevala #finnishmythology
Kalevala is Finland’s national epic. Compiled by Elias Lönnrot in the 1800s, it consists of epic poems of creation, magic, lust, vengeance and death. A story of the sons of Kaleva, the forefather of Finns, it takes the reader to a mythical ancient land filled with monsters and magic, and even to the realm of the dead.
This animated series, narrated by Reidar Wasenius ( / reidarwasenius , illustrates the story of Kalevala from start to finish. This second episodes sees the minstrel Väinämöinen, challenged by the young and arrogant Joukahainen, and as one might expect, it does not go too well...

Happy? Finnish? HA HA HA!
Having listened this being sung when in sauna multiple times, safe to say, this is pretty much how it went. Joukahaisen mother being hyped her daughter gets to marry a BIG MAN.

Sounds like a pretty damn good sauna
"Married happily ever after" is rare even in Finnish fairytales.

This type of talking carries the same comfortable and familiar feeling of the videos of Kurzgesagt

True. Even Aino didn't like in in the mythical past. Still going on in places around the world...

Anything more about Tapio and Mielikki beyond the Kalevala? How do modern Pagan Finns regard them?

Tapio has long been on my to-do list of videos. One of the better preserved deities (or spirits) and often synomous to the forest itself. I don't really know how modern pagans see things - there are so few "devout" believers. Would be interesting to get someone featured in a video some time.
No I am you and you is talking. :)
