  1. The Finnish Väinämöinen creation story has interesting parallels in Estonian folklore. While Väinämöinen shapes the world from broken eggs, Estonian myths feature Vanapagan crafting landscapes through cosmic bargains.

    Both share that distinct Finnic worldview: the world isn't given—it's built or bargained for. Makes me wonder what other parallels exist between Finnic and Baltic creation stories.
