Dead Rising from Tuonela by TeroPorthan on DeviantArt (original) (raw)

The dead rise in Finnish folklore from under the ground, the tombs of Tuonela Deathland, they are already a part of nature with plants growing off them, they rise either by themselves or with summoning spells.

Rise, cease from slumbering,
from reposing in a leafy copse.
Thou hast lain in the ground for long,
a long while in a gloomy place,
so thou art no better than a corpse.
