Vachete Suomi AU. Vesuri ja Vaski asuvat suuressa kylässä jossain sisämaassa kaukana suurista kaupungeista kuten Turusta. Kirkonkylän pappi, Vesuri, yrittää parhaansa mukaan vakuuttaa kyläläisiä kasvattamaan perunaa, koska se on satoisa ja ravitseva kasvi mutta kyläläiset eivät tahdo luopua nauriista. Vaski on kartanonvoudin poika ja yrittää pitää suhteita yllä kyläläisiin, että he olisivat suostuvaisia maksamaan veroja kuninkaalle eivätkä hyökkäisi hänen isänsä kimppuun.

Loose translation:

Finnish Vaschete AU.

Vesuri (a type of pruning knife/billhook) and Vaski (brass/copper/bronze) live in a big village somewhere inland, far away from the country's populous cities like Turku (Finland's oldest city and former capital located in the southwestern coast). The village priest, Vesuri, is trying his best to persuade the villagers to start farming potato, a high-yielding and nourishing crop, but people are reluctant to give up their turnips (one of Finland's most important staple foods up until 1800's when potato finally took over). Vaski is the son of a local lord of the manor (or maybe you'd call it bailiff? Or even jarl?) and is doing his best to get along with the villagers so that they would continue paying their taxes to the king and wouldn't turn against his dad.

#I'm not sure how you'd translate kartanonvouti #an official who governs a piece of land and is responsible for collecting taxes for the king you know the deal #I would've called Machete kassara which is a synonym for vesuri #but then you could call him “käsikassara” which is a derogatory term for a person who does someone else's dirty work #and that's what he does and why he's called Machete #I don't know if you're aware anon but Vasco was named that because his colors reminded me of vaski #anonymous #answered #Vaschete scenarios #Finland was converted from catholicism to protestantism in early 1600's and potatoes were first introduced here around 100 years later #so in this case he's either catholic and a true potato trailblazer ahead of his time #or this takes place after the reformation and he's lutheran but potatoes are slowly being adopted it's the villagers who are anti-potato #I don't know what I'm talking about

my OC merchant (whose name i will settle on one day, honest) fishing on a nice, hot day, which there may or may not be in the lands between

#elden ring for blacklist #hnery's art #i actually wanted to name him elias but i'm afraid of being accused of ripping off the ancient magus' bride #(never mind that elias is an ordinary name here in finland lmao)#i might just have to settle on 'erl' even though i'm not 100% happy with it

i’m watching rupaul’s drag race and i can’t stop thinking about käärijä being a guest judge i think he’d have a lot of fun and give genuine heartfelt compliments to the queens i bet his eyes would light up when he sees the fierce runway looks he’d love the dark edgy ones with black latex, leather, spikes, collars and whips👀 and i can totally see him sincerely sitting with the queens in untucked looking up at them and just being the sweetest guy we all know he is💚

#drag race finland when??#i feel like he’d be in his element #someone once said something about käärijä being a drag act and i 100% agree #there needs to be a drag race finland so he can judge!#i think he’d slay and have so much fun #also one of the queens should definitely put him in a breastplate i think he’d love it🤗#käärijä #rupaul's drag race #drag race #fruity thoughts
