Otso

Description

Otso are finnish woodland spirits that usually take the form of bears. Sometimes they are thought to be the souls of people who were lost in the woods. Usually you'd avoid saying the word "otso" and refer to them sneakily as "you friend" or "uncle" so as not to attract their attention. While not necessarily malevolent, they might not be super-nice, and I'm sure they'd be really scary to meet!

i like it very much - this style is so classically, it could be also be a woodcut or from an very old book - fantastically!
