Posting this because I spent waaaay too much time on this. It’s not terribly pretty, but I hope it makes sense

Lalli, orders, and a driving force of the narrative

let me be clear, this post is about trains.

but it is also about moving walkways that take you in a single direction, whether you meant to get on them or not.

and finally, it’s about people who push you to get on the train against your will, and the consequences of being railroaded (ha! funny joke!) like this.

(and it’s also about how Taru is a deceptive asshole who probably deliberately targeted a vulnerable Tuuri to try to manipulate Onni, but I digress.)

Vellamo is one of the initial references to Finnish mythology, seen in the first chapter. she’s invoked for safety and protection on troll-infested waters.

per wikipedia, Vellamo has sacred underwater cows who emerge from morning mist to eat water hay. which sounds weirdly similar to the cow imagery we just saw at the start of the latest chapter.

…who were all just slaughtered. 

so the sacred animal of one of lake-bound post-apocalyptic Finland’s key goddesses of protection just got dramatically, symbolically destroyed by probably Surma off-screen.

not anymore.

they’re so screwed.
