Civilization comes at a cost.
The price is steep, all things good and mighty surrendered, virility, wildness, risk. It costs our Strength, our Courage, our Wisdom, our mastery of self and most of all our honor and nobility.

Aino-taru Triptych by Axél Waldemar Gallén.

From the Finnish epic the Kalevala.
Aino was Joukahainen's sister who was promised to the old and wise Väinämöinen in marriage after Joukahainen lost a magic singing match against Väinämöinen. Aino instead decides to drown herself.
In one of the tales of Frau Holle, a widow has a lazy daughter, Pechmarie, and a hardworking stepdaughter, Goldmarie. When a spool falls into the well, Goldmarie jumps in and comes to the land of Frau Holle, where she shakes the beds so that it snows on earth.

When she wants to go home again, she is richly blessed with a shower of gold for her diligent work. The envious stepsister wants to do the same and also jumps into the well. But because she is unkind & lazy, Frau Holle showers her with tar.
“We must not look at goblin men,
We must not buy their fruits:
Who knows upon what soil they fed
Their hungry thirsty roots?”

Hail the old gods. May they be with you in whatever stage of your journey you may be in.
I see most of the good people that subscribe to the channel are discovering ethnic faith in various stages.
I myself fit into the majority in the poll, but every day is a new adventure, a new encounter with the story of us.
Hail the old ways!
Hail the folk!
Hail the old gods!

Clym of the Clough

In British folklore, Clym of the Clough is a legendary outlaw who is often in the company with Adam Bell and William of Cloudesly.
As with his companions, Clym of the Clough was famed for his skill with bow and arrow.
He is generally said to have lived long before Robin Hood and made his home in Englewood Forest near Carlisle. His exploits are told in the form of a ballad in Percy’s Reliques (1765).
In Greek myth, the moon goddess Selene falls in love with a shepherd, Endymion, who is blessed (or cursed) to sleep for all eternity so that she may admire his beauty every night.
