The sky of Tverlandet (Norway, county Nordland) is always beautiful. The sky in Norway is constantly changing. Every evening the sky Tverlandet composes and tells me its fantastic stories.
Episode 1. Chimera
In the first photo I “caught” a Chimera. Yes, this is she - a monster - the head and paws of a lion, the body of a goat and the tail of a dragon.
Chimera is the hero of Greek mythology. Daughter of the giant Typhon and the snake-woman Echidna. She breathed fire. Mr. Virgil in the poem "Aeneid" presented the Chimera as a guard at the doors of Hell.
Perhaps Chimera flew in to compare the rocks of Tverlandet with the mountains of her native Lycia. Or Chimera is looking for a new place to live. Perhaps the Chimera lost her love somewhere. She flies around the planet, looking for her.
Interesting! In the science, a “chimera” is a living organism that is created from several genetically different organisms.
And in a figurative sense, the Chimera is a mirage, a dark fantasy, a dream that will never come true.
Episode 2
And now a troll has appeared overhead. Huge, terrible. He raised his ax over the world. But! Light always conquers Darkness. The rays of the sun will turn the Troll to stone. Now it is going to fall from the sky into the water.
Do you see many black stones in the water? I think that these are also trolls, which the sunlight has already turned into stones.
The troll is the negative hero of Scandinavian myths. He can be small, like a dwarf, or he can be a giant. Scary. A mandatory attribute of a troll is a big nose. The troll lives in a cave, in a castle, in the mountains, under a bridge or in a forest. He likes meat. He likes wars with ordinry people and great gods. Under the influence of sunlight, they turn into stone.
Therefore, there are so many huge stones in Norway - these are trolls who have become a stone.
Episode 3. Rehearsal of Ragnarok.
The future battle of Ragnarok appeared in the sky of Tverlandet. Rehearsal. Light came together in battle with Darkness. Just like now in my native Ukraine, where the forces of good (Ukrainian soldiers) are fighting the forces of evil - russian soldiers.
The outcome of Ragnarok is known: in the last battle Good will defeat Evil. Light will triumph over Darkness. Peace will come to planet Earth.
Tomorrow I'll show you something else!
