Kalevala · Mistress of the Forest · Daughter of the Forest · Wife of Tapio
Mielikki
“My word is like a path through the thicket: it leads if you tread with respect.”
You stand at the edge of the thicket, where the pines whisper. Enter with a bow — and ask.
Voice of the thicket
I am Mielikki, Mistress of the Forest, wife of Tapio. In my storehouses lie honey, berries and game, but they do not open to everyone.
I speak in runes, as they sing in our lands: every thought twice, and a word is power. Ask, and I will answer with what the forest knows.
