ANSWERS 6: EXILE

Note to my non-Finnish readers: in this comic I’m talking about a Finnish book that, to my knowledge, has never been translated to English. Hence the translations are my own.

”Mr Brony asks: ’If you’d need to go to exile from this universe and live in the world of some book/movie/TV series, where would you go?'” //
”Ooh, there are so many possibilities, how can I even choose!” //
”There’s Redwall, Star Wars, Star Trek, Stargate, Harry Potter, The Three Musketeers, Watership Down, The Lord of the Rings, The Chronicles of Narnia, Donald Duck, Tex Willer, Ninja Turtles, Moomins, Farthing Wood, Spirou & Fantasio, Asterix, Doctor Who and so many others…” //
”No wait, there’s an extra rule: ’You cannot choose a lore that has previously been mentioned in this blog.'” //
”Oh.” //
”Well, actually the extra rule makes this easier now that I don’t have to choose between the ones I mentioned above. Instead, I’ll choose…” //
”Spice Land. It makes an appearance in Annina Holmberg’s novel Jorney to Spice Land. The novel has been illustrated by Hannu Lukkarinen.”

”Spice Land is the land of good flavors and sweet dreams. In here are refined and mixed in the perfect form all the flavors in the world, all those ingredients without which life would be bland and dull…” All the spirits of spices live in Spice Land – Pepper Princess, Mint Ogre, Clove Witch, Cinnamon Fairies, Nutmeg Gnome, Laurel Dragon and many others… It is an beautiful, exciting and kind land, and the book that tells about it is one of my childhood favorites (and I still like it very much!). //
Even though cardamom already has its own spirit, I could be Cardamom Centaur… //
…I’d live in a canyon and make cardamom cookies. (Because in Spice Land everything has alliteration!) //
”Hmm, I suddenly really want cardamom cookies…”

Sarjiksen luonnosteltuani menin ja tein kardemummakeksejä. Oikeasti.
After sketching this comic I made cardamom cookies. Really.
