Revontulet 🌌 (fox fires//northern lights)
"An oft-repeated story from Finnish mythology holds that the northern lights, or revontulet ("fox fires") in Finnish, are created when an Arctic fox runs past the mountains and grazes them with its fur, which causes sparks to fly into the sky." - Katya Pantzar, The Finnish Way
I’m excited to share that I’ll be living in Finland for the month of June this year 🇫🇮 who knows what magical adventures await me!

A Firefox Rival/Counterpart for Tails (Idea)
(Spoiler alert for those who haven't read Sonic IDW below)
Tumblr media
In the IDW comics, Tails got his own version of Shadow named Kitsunami (Kit) the Fennec. Spoiler alert, he was kidnapped, brainwashed, and turned into a cyborg by Dr. Starline.
That said, I would love to see Tails unwillingly follow in Sonic's footsteps in terms of getting his own version of Triple S, but with different foxes. We already got a good start with Kit being Tails's Shadow, but what about someone to be Tails's Silver? Since Tails is a red fox and Kit is a fennec fox, all they need to complete the trio is an arctic fox to be their Silver.
If Sega ever decides to incorporate an arctic fox, I think instead of giving them ice powers or making them another kitsune like Tails or Kit, they should have abilities based off another popular myth - the Firefox.
According to Finnish mythology, a Firefox's fiery tail is responsible for the creation of the Northern Lights. Many cultures also associate the Northern Lights with the sprits of the dead.
Silver has psychic powers via psychokinesis. What if the arctic fox's psychic abilities manifested itself via mediumship/channeling (ability to community with the dead)? They would be able to channel spirits through their fiery tail perhaps.
Sonic and Shadow are incredibly fast. Silver isn't as fast as them, but makes up for it with his skills and techniques. The same thing could apply to the arctic fox. Tails and Kit have very high IQs and are skilled in technology and mechanics. The arctic fox may not have high intellect or be a skilled mechanic. However, they make up for it with a high EQ (which seems crucial if you're working with spirits) and a lot of knowledge of the supernatural (Technology vs Magic kind of thing).
Thank y'all for coming to my TED Talk. Have a good day/night wherever you are.

Revontulien aktiivisempi ajanjakso on iloksemme alkanut. Tämän talven aikana on etelässäkin näkynyt revontulet useina iltoina/öinä. Tämän pitäisi jatkua vielä 3-4 vuotta 😀. Edellinen revontulien maksimi oli 2015 ja seuraava on noin 2025/26. Aktiivisuus kuitenkin alkaa muutaman vuoden ennen maksimia ja jatkuu muutaman vuoden yli. ❄️🌑❄️🌑❄️🌑❄️🌑❄️ Photographer / Valokuvaaja: Markus Kauppinen My websites / Verkkosivuni: http://www.valonkuvaaja.com My blog / Blogini: http://www.valonkuvaaja.com/blogi My web gallery / Kuvagalleriat: https://500px.com/p/valonkuvaaja http://www.valonkuvaaja.com/kuvagalleria Instagram http://www.instagram.com/kauppinen_markus Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/Valonkuvaajacom Twitter: https://twitter.com/valonkuvaaja Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/user/Valonkuvaajacom #hämeenlinna #hämecastle #visthämeenlinna #revontulet #taivaantulet #auroraborealis #northernlights #europe #nightphotography #yökuvaus #ar #augmentedreality #fantasy (paikassa Häme Castle - Hämeen linna) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpJfr6MK7WE/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The Aurora Borealis is a natural light display occurring close to the earth. In Finnish it is “Revontulet”or “Fox Fires”, from a Finnish myth in which a magical fox creates the lights by sweeping his fiery tail across the snow, spraying sparks up into the sky.

Another up-cycled copper piece from the boiler. A fox that I cut and engraved. Stars on the tail to remind of the fable of revontulet who creates the borealis as he runs because his tail causes sparks of snow, hydrangea petals, seeds and foliage to remind of the pools of water and what tiny cosmos they hold, and how we too are not unlike these pools of water, but with a porous membrane.
