Kalevala means "Land of Heroes", but the heroes in it are a funny bunch. Vainamoinen was born 30 years old and wise and bearded. Lemminkainen is a Don Juan type. Ilmarinen is a smith. All of them are very powerful and work magic by song. Unfortunately they are all sex-starved, and go up North to Pohjola to try to get themself a wife from the witch Louhi. After deliberately marrying and accidentally killing all of Louhi's daughters, she gets a bit miffed and steals the sun in revenge. Then (because Elias Lönnrot is a Christian of course), Jesus turns up, the old heroes fade away, and everyone lives happily ever after (apart from having to live in Finland of course).
