Torkis Jaionnis

Sen ajlles vil i raus hjär,
 Ferhjär mange det,
 Men trängär flöj det,
 Det äg ti-rhgölla.

Summary

In Barduro lives a man called Jaionnis. He asks his friend, Nikolius, how long he would wait for Michael to come to House and Tony to Barduro. He answers 7 years, while Jaionnis will visit Tony to come to Barduro to help him find the golden egg. They find it and put it back in House where it came from. However, the egg is stolen by a thief called Mattaskar who throws it into the sea. Jaionnis then sails to the house of Michael and asks him for a free holiday to Boatem, which he gives him on the condition that the great cave is removed from the cliffs of Maagnys. Jaionnis is confused until, when he is almost at Boatem, he sees a man called Maagnys standing beside a cliff. He is a criminal who stole the temple of Michael's great egg. Jaionnis kills Maagnys, having been instructed by Jeremy to do so, and buries him in the cave and blocks it. He arrives at Boatem and meets Scar. He asks Scar where the great egg is, to which he replies that he does not know but he does know that Jaionnis is in the protection of Michael. He gathers an army to find the golden egg. On that same day, Scar runs out of Boatem to tell them that the golden egg is in the north. He knows this because Jeremy came to him to tell him it. They sail north to find the golden egg but a storm takes them to the *Swedenlake* (referring to Øresund). The kings of Norway, Denmark and Sweden try to buy the boats with all their iron charrots, but they will not convince Jaionnis. In the night, they attack the boat. Nobody dies, but they have to swim in the sea until an island materialises to save them. They all go onto the island. There Jaionnis falls into the cave and finds the golden egg. But a storm comes again, destorying the island. Everybody's life is in danger until Jaionnis promises to give half of the wealth obtained in the island to Michael. The sun shines and the storm stops, allowing them to go back. They go to House for some time, to give Michael the half of the wealth he was promised. They go happily back to Barduro and arrive on the very last day of the seven years promised by Nikolius.
Barduroese

Barduroese is the national language of Barduro. It is a north Germanic language. It is unique in that it doesnt have cases or genders as much as other languages, but Old Barduroese had genders and the Skertnes dialect still does. They disappeared at the beggining of middle Barduroese (c.1400). The grammar of Barduroese originated in Hermitians who travelled there and Barduroese evolved to be closer to Hermitian. It is similar to Broken English, a language spoken in House with heavy Barduroese influence.

When there is a chicken on the head,

there is a dream of a stinky sailor,

Oh there is a chicken on the head!

Even though a chicken-carpets cover the floor,

There is a chicken on the head!

An egg from the chicken on the head,

Oh, a chicken head, of the mountain,

A chicken carpet on mt. Rasähaasd!

### History

The church was first built in 1362 and was a mostly underground church (This is now the lower church). In 1393, work started on the current church and it was a normal church with two aisles.

The only other churches in Barduro with outer aisles are Slaada Cathedral, St Marys church in Skava and the church of three saints in Steinsgag both of which only have one outer aisle. At the end of the inner south aisle is St Marys chapel, which has the tomb of Naske i Snevik (1312-1382), who donated money to the building of the upper church.

But with granite!

And a torch,

This small table!

Which has diorite,

Taking over,

This annoying house!

To the sacred Iakall,

This annoying block!
