Description | A fruit as white as pearl that tastes refreshingly sweet. In the legends of the Frostmoon Scions, these fruits, like kuuhenki, are a gift from the Moon Maiden, a sacred symbol blessed by the new moon. Therefore, sharing and eating delicious Lakkaberries is also a form of worshipping Kuutar. Even when not associated with the divine, their plumpness and sweetness alone are enough to awaken one’s appetite. |

One response to “Lakkaberry”
The description contains some Finnish words. Here how they translate:
Lakka in lakkaberry is one Finnish words for cloudberry. Other ones are “hilla” and “suomuurain”.
Kuuhenki = Moon Spirit
Kuutar = “tar/tär” suffix usually means the person in this case is female. For example, “näyttelijätär” means actress, “tarjoilijatar” is waitress, “jumalatar” is goddess and so on. Nowadays this suffix is rarely used (except few common words, like “kuningatar” which mean queen) because it is thought to be old-fashioned and maybe a bit sexist.
