MOORSFEST AND WHAT DO TROLLS DO DURING THE TIME OF THE
MIDNIGHT SUN
This latest entry is to try and envisage
what the forest Moorsfest looks like seen through the lyrics that I write, the
above picture helps in some way imaging such a place. Although Moorsfest is a lot more dense and tangled and much
darker and difficult for people to navigate through, trolls and other forest
creatures do not have this problem as they know all the ways around. In the songs that I have written including
Moorsfest, I have tried to put as much information regarding it. To try and add depth in telling its history
and all the battles and various sagas that have taken place there, also its
occupants. The trolls and goblins,
elves, bears, owls, badgers, foxes. All
these play a part, although I must admit not all have been included. However one can assume that these animals
and birds would live in these habitats, although I do not like to assume! Each song has told a separate tale about the
place, and also at different points in its history. Which I hope has been clear in it’s telling, what I have also
tried to include is the solitude and silence of the place, which must be
immensely beautiful. To have just peace
and just natural noises around, trolls pondering over the many things that vex
them. Hours spent deep in thought
almost trance like, and at one with nature and their place within it.
The second part of this entry, is as the
title says what do trolls do in the midnight sun? As all of my stories and lyrics are set in a fictional place
around The Arctic Circle, and I know that the sun does not set during the
summer months. So do trolls go into a
form of hibernation? Or is there
something about the sun during this season that does not affect Trolls, I have
only just became aware of this and thought it was worth mentioning. It would kind of be like an around the other
way type of hibernation, as opposed during the winter months it would be during
the summer months. Or maybe there is
something about the sun under the canopy of the forest that doesn’t bother
trolls too much; anyway something to think about as autumn descends…
