This takes place in the context of the Arheled series, being narrated by several characters from said series. It is a retelling of the Finnish mythological epic, the Kalevala, from the mouth of Vainamoinen himself. Here are revealed the fascinating myths of the balsam from which Man was brewed, the singing of the world, the forging of the sky, and the adventures among mortals of the demiurgic heros. Chief among them is Vainamoinen, the eternal wisdom-singer, and his brother the master craftsman Ilmarinen, and their chief adversary is Ilmarinen's mother-in-law, the terrible witch Louhi, possessor of the magic grinder named the Sampo.
