Wow, that's a drum of my dreams!
Did you mean anything by that sequence of runes or is it totally random?

There is two really old finnish poems, about viper and raven:

Mato musta kyy punanen tuonen tanhuvilta nosta pääsi kuule kutsu saavu tänne luokki selkä

Kanna korppi kaihojani lintu musta murhettani

Oh, it's pity I don't know Finnish. Would it be too much to ask you for a translation? :blushes: They sound beautiful, but I wish I knew the meaning.

Translation always kind of ruins the poem, and I'm not master in english, but straight translation goes somehow like: "worm black, viper red, from netherworld, rise your head, hear summoning, come here notch back"

"carry my longing raven, bird black my grief"
