THE LEGEND OF SIGRID THE HAUGHTY
Thus doth the ancient history of the Slavs entwine with the tempestuous fates of the Kings of the North. 'Tis a tale of Sigrid, the haughty daughter of Duke Mieszko, who loved freedom above all else. The proud princess, ere she became wife and mother of kings, did spurn the wooing of greedy men, treating them to cruel fire. By the name of Sigrid Storråda, that is, the Haughty, did they then proclaim her.
This woman did hold fidelity to her forebears higher than foreign crowns and gold. When the King of the Norwegians, Olaf, durst raise his hand against Piast blood and struck her across the face, he knew not at all that this blow would swiftly return unto him as a doomful wave.
Sigrid did strike a wise alliance with the Danish ruler Sven, that in a great sea battle she might send her foe unto the murky depths. Yet this tale is not merely of bloody vengeance, but a teaching of cool reason. For the princess did bring peace unto distant lands, made the laws as one, and gave bread unto orphans. For what is justice, when it heedeth not mercy? Listen well to this, that whoso turneth wrath into prudence, doth bring great peace for generations to come.
00:00 Of the daughter of Piast and the mother of kings
00:41 How she did burn her suitors with fire in the hall
01:22 Of Olaf's blow and the unyielding faith of her forebears
01:41 Of the alliance with Sven and the birth of kings
02:27 How the sea waves took vengeance for the blow
03:17 Of her wise rule and care for the folk
03:42 Of prudent words ere her passing

THE LEGEND OF THE KLOBUK
A stern winter had bound the river Pisa in hard ice, and within the cottage of the old raftsman, the wind did but howl through the empty corners. The hardy fellow of Masuria had naught to put into his pot. Suddenly, a klobuk crept across the threshold. A beast as black as pitch, with eyes burning like coals! Listen well of this, why one ought make no pacts with a klobuk.
At first, that demon shall bear thalers and full bowls of victuals into the cottage. Thou shalt wallow in riches, stolen by night from the neighboring yeomen. Yet the wondrous silver shall swiftly lose its luster, and the klobuk shall make a very hell of thy life.
If thou dost fall into his pitiless snares, to survive and save thy soul, thou must employ a ruse. Even as the cunning fellow of Masuria, who knew how to banish the foul power from his homestead. Yet shall cunning, a scattered handful of salt, and the rushing current of the river suffice to outwit this evil? Listen well to the ancient teaching, that plain reason is more precious than stolen gold.
00:00 Of the old fellow and the currents of the Pisa
00:55 How the stern winter did lay waste to the livestock
01:46 Of the black bird that proved to be a Klobuk
02:50 How devilish thalers do weigh upon the heart

THE LEGEND OF SVETOVIT
A tale we recount this day, of how the desires of mortal men did tear a mighty god asunder unto the four corners of the world. When four folk at the selfsame hour did beg for deliverance, when sword, horn, and white steed did tremble in the dark, the primeval Slavic heavens were cleft in twain! Hearken how the mighty god Svetovit was born anew from human suffering.
The mighty god Svetovit did once gaze upon the world with but a single visage. Unfathomable power he wielded, yet even the gods cannot answer every mortal cry. Once upon a time, four clans came unto the temple. Warriors from the north demanded bloody might, whilst elders from the south begged for blissful peace. Tillers from the east prayed for a bountiful harvest, whilst soothsayers from the west sought a clear omen in the wake of fires. A single gaze could not encompass so many opposing paths.
Hearken unto the tale that the storyteller Małgorzata doth recount this day. Know ye what difference doth part the idol of Zbruch, called Światowid, from the primeval lord of the heavens. Uncover the mystery of how the four faces came to be: War, Harvest, Prophecy, and Destiny. Feel the wisdom of the forebears' faiths, that thou mightest grasp which of the faces doth hold our entire world in check unto this very day.
00:00 Of the idol of Światowid and the god Svetovit
00:51 How four folk came unto the temple
01:47 Of the omen of the steed, sword, and carven horn
02:41 When the god's visage split unto the four winds
03:02 Of the faces of War, Harvest, and the Soothsayer
04:09 How the face of Destiny came to be
04:50 Of peace and the desires of mortal men

THE LEGEND OF DYDKO
Whence came the household sprites? From a single scamp they descend. In ages past, when settlements stood closer to the dense forest than to reason, there lived a most nimble lad. He had two eyes sharp as coals, and a smile that ever heralded dire mischief.
Ancient Slavic mythology hides within it not only dark monsters, but likewise beings who cared for human merriment. Ofttimes, the hiding of wares and the tying of shoes into a great knot is the finest sport. Hearken, then, how a great market was turned into very pandemonium, how threads found their way into pots, and eggs joined with the fishes.
This mirthful tale is wondrously spun by the peerless Storyteller Małgorzata. She minds us that the ancient beliefs of the Slavs bear an extraordinary lesson. For in every dwelling, a touch of unpredictability is needed. And nevermore shalt thou marvel, when thy cup doth suddenly change its place.
00:00 Of the nimble lad, whom they called Dydko
01:20 How he changed salt for sugar in the tavern
02:07 Of old Bożymir and the scattered millet
02:59 When he mingled the bundles at the great market
03:58 How the elders took counsel upon the trickster's fate
04:36 The office of the household prankster
05:23 Whence came the dydkos, that make mischief in the home

THE LEGEND OF VELES
Ere the lord of the underworld descended into the realm of Navia, he walked upon the earth in human guise. Tall and dark was he, and his eyes shone like deep wells. The beasts straightway sensed his power and bowed their heads in humility. And whosoever refused the will of the underworld lord lost far more than he would have willed.
There lived in those days a young shepherd, Borut. A grievous sickness consumed his mother, and a small herd of cows was his only wealth. On a certain autumn night, a stranger guest appeared in the fold and demanded a cow. The terrified youth refused, whereupon the mighty god Veles spoke Words that changed all things.
Hearken to the legend of old. The storyteller Małgorzata weaves a tale of how the mighty lord of Navia brought destiny unto men. How thin is the boundary between the living and the dead, like unto a spider's web. For though Veles sought not man's ruin, he taught great humility before the laws of the earth without mercy. Yet upon those who tend their world with a pure heart, reward was bestowed.
00:00 Of the underworld lord Veles
01:02 Of the shepherd Borut and his sole wealth
01:58 How Borut denied his cow to the lord of Navia
02:48 Of the deity's dire vengeance and the mother's affliction
03:32 When the shepherd journeyed into Navia
04:40 Before the god's presence and the hour of judgment
05:32 Of the new herd and the wisdom of old forefathers

THE LEGEND OF THE LAMIA
Learn ye the secret of the White River and the demonic creature with the body of a serpent and a woman. Old folk in the Bulgarian Pirin Mountains say that ere the first human paths were trodden there, a strange and wondrous heavy river flowed in the valley. The mysterious, ancient Lamia dwelt there. Above, she resembled a maiden, but from the waist down her body was covered in dire, scaly coils.
The Lamias, demons known unto the South Slavs, seldom sought strife with man. Yet this lady of the White River possessed a wondrous, magnetic power. Whosoever halted but once by her stream lost his heart for daily toil and could no longer dwell among human kind. Peasants returned from the forest depths utterly changed, sunk in silence or seeing things hidden from the sight of others.
Hearken, then, unto the Storyteller Małgorzata and know why the terrified villagers gathered at dawn and marched to the waters, bearing sharp iron and destructive fire. How they sought to drive the lady of the waters from her ancient domain. Understanding not that the eternal order of the world cannot be broken so easily.
00:00 Of the White River flowing amidst the Pirin Mountains
00:37 How the lady of serpent body emerged from the depths
01:33 Of the strange slowing of time
02:15 When she began to shatter the order of the peasants
02:55 How at dawn they set forth with fire and iron
04:06 Of the dire rift in the earth and the river's breath
05:08 Of the great lesson that remained in the valley

THE LEGEND OF THE DROWNER
Old folk say that every river and old mill had its hidden master. Thus it was ages ago in a certain mill. Above the swift current stood a wooden structure whose wheel turned by day and by night. Howbeit, one wondrous thing gave the miller no peace. When the moon shone bright, the mill wheel would suddenly halt without any cause.
The water flowed swiftly, yet the great machine kept silence, as though bewitched by evil intent. Upon the wet planks of the pier, the master found strange frog-like footprints that vanished into the depths. This was no human doing! That selfsame night, the miller kept a lonely vigil at the doorway. Whereupon, from the black depths, a wet, greenish figure emerged, its hair tangled with river weed. Thus did the ancient legend of the drowner come to life before a mortal's eyes.
Yet that water demon sought not ruin, but wept with a mournful voice over his lost home. Storyteller Małgorzata speaketh today of how violating the order of nature can bring down dire punishment. For when a great downpour came, the river fiercely claimed its rights. Yet if one holdeth respect and care for nature and ancient laws, a mighty ally we may find in them.
00:00 Of the old mill and the water guardians
00:51 Of the frog-like tracks and the halting of the wheel
01:41 How in the night hour the drowner emerged from the depths
02:23 Of the water spirit's grief and the ancient deep
02:57 When a dire downpour found the former channel
03:54 Of the current's return and the strange movement of the wheel
04:36 Of the gifts upon the bank and holy balance

THE LEGEND OF THE ZMEY
Olden shepherds do say that ere man did plow the first field, the wild mountains held their lord. And his name was Zmey, who hailed straight from the misty peaks of the Rhodopes. Know ye then a creature that possessed two visages, altogether unalike. Yet he sought neither gold nor bloody sacrifice.
Hidden by day, by night he would descend unto the Slavic villages in the guise of a fair youth. The Zmey sought neither gold nor blood offerings. His heart yearned for the love of an earthly maiden, and when he met her, he did encompass her with mighty warding. When through the darkwood she walked, even the bloodthirsty wolves would fall silent at once.
Hearken unto the tale that the storyteller Małgorzata doth recount, and know how the olden myths did explain the ruinous forces of nature. When the cruel demons of hail drew near, the defender of men would soar high into the heavens. His mortal vessel would shatter like a brittle shell, unleashing a fiery beast of three heads. For a true warden doth not forsake his subjects in their hour of need. Even if in bloody fray, as in that with the wicked, many-headed beast named Lamia, he were to lay down his earthly life.
00:00 Of the two visages of the lord of the Rhodopes
00:55 How in the night he went forth for his chosen maiden
01:33 Of the guarding of the realm and the driving away of black clouds
02:14 When into a fiery lamia for defense he did transform
03:06 Of the fair Mila, who stood at the shadow's side
03:38 Of the bloody night battle with a fell monster
04:15 The guardian's last words and his turning unto the wind

THE LEGEND OF RODOVYNY
The olden beliefs do tell that the mamuny do but wait for a little babe, that they might do it harm. Then must the wise woman perform her rites. She must cast mugwort and juniper into the fire, and drive away the evil powers with the smoke. Thus begins the wondrous rite of rodovyny.
Rodovyny is an ancient rite, which doth tightly bind the kin. The father wraps the threshold in red wool, whilst at midnight bread, honey, and milk are set upon the table. The Rozhanitsy and the god Rod do arrive in silence, to write the child's fate and ward it against the mamuny.
On the seventh day, the sacred bath of the newborn came to pass. Into the water went chamomile, oak leaves, a silver coin, and an egg for the vigor of life. 'Twas pure magic and the wisdom of nature, which our forefathers did fiercely revere.
Listen well, as the storyteller Małgorzata doth speak of olden traditions. Of reverence for one's roots, the secrets of the Slavic chamber, and customs of centuries past. Let the ancient fire burn away the dread, and may wisdom grant ye strength.
00:00 Of the ancient custom and the breath of the god Rod
00:38 How in the deep of night the woman labored
01:40 Of the warding of the threshold against spirits
01:58 When at midnight the three Rozhanitsy arrive
02:40 Of the sacred bath and herbs from the mother

04:28 Of the evening feast and everlasting memory

THE LEGEND OF DEVANA
There, where the path of man doth end, begins the realm of profound silence. In the darksome heart of the wildwood, amidst the mists, the great lady of wild nature was born. Ere she gained a visage and a voice, she was but the rustle of leaves and the chill of the morn. Men felt her breath when they ventured too deep into the thicket. Fear and humility brought it to pass that a mighty name was bestowed upon her at last. Devana.
Listen well of the days when the forest hunted alongside its wardens. And of why the ancient Slavic mythology sought not deities high in the heavens, but within the earth itself. Of the birth of the sovereign of the woods. Of the wild Lady with hair like unto tangled branches, whose eyes gleamed as the moonlight upon the water.
She had no need of weapons, for the whole of the wilderness was her faithful servant. 'Twas the words of men that called her into being. A goddess. The true queen of shadows. The tales of yore told by the hearth-fire gave warning of her wrath, yet also taught reverence for nature. Bear ye this ancient tradition in mind, for the earth was never empty.
00:00 Of deep shadows and questions of the lady of the wildwood
00:23 How the nameless wildness stood upon the marches
00:53 Of trembling hands and sylvan might
01:32 How they beheld the warden in the thicket
01:49 Of her wondrous form and the forest that hunts through her
02:24 How humble gifts and songs were offered before her
03:01 Of the birth of Devana from the living memory of men

Our voices ye hear are but echoes, crafted by a machine. Our native tongue is Polish, yet we wish to share the ancient Slavic folklore with the world. Thus, we called upon this modern magic so our tales might reach your ears.
In this series, we tell ancient lore, myths, and folktales passed down by word of mouth through generations. In our legends shall appear guardian spirits, household demons, gods of nature, wondrous creatures, and heroes who teach us of courage, kindness, and the human heart through their deeds. We invite you on a journey into the world of our ancestors' beliefs. Wilt thou walk this path with us?
