Question
This figure abducts a maiden who marries him after he promises not to go to war and she promises not to go to village dances. Later, he creates a flock of sheep from powdered wool to distract a wolf and a bear, then cuts through a wall of snakes to reach a banquet hall where he wins duels with both magic and swords. After this hero is forced off the Island of Refuge, he seeks revenge with his companion Tiera, but only succeeds in convincing Frost not to kill them. He warns his mother to watch for his (*) hairbrush to bleed before embarking on a quest in which he captures the moose of Hiisi (HEE-see). A bee brings honey from Ukko (OOK-koh) to this hero's mother, who uses a copper rake to pull his body from the river where he died hunting the swan of Tuonela (TOO-oh-NAY-lah). For 10 points, name this hero who helps Ilmarinen (EEL-mah-RIN-en) and Väinämöinen (VYE-nah-MOY-nen) recover the Sampo in the Kalevala (KAH-leh-VAH-lah). ■END■
