Alt-Land-Is

– Alt-Land-Is –

Long time ago, before the ice age, people lived in perfect harmony with the nature in a system that didn't give possibility for overpopulation. As the axle of the planet was in its right position, straight, all the planet was under stable tropical climate. So was also Odenmaa at the North Pole

There lived the Asers who held the highest knowledge on earth with the root-language. Outside Odenmaa lived the Vaners in their ringlands

Everybody paid respect to Per who due to the breeding system was the allfather of all humankind

Over 50 million 10000 years ago the axle of the planet shifted and caused the ice age when the ringlands outside were covered by ice, a period called

Alt-land-is, all land's ice
Alt-land-is, all land's ice

As the Gulf stream came to heat south Finland, Odenmaa remained clear of ice and the Asers learned a new way of life

Agriculture and new animal species were created for staying alive for 50 million years surrounded by huge icebergs

As the ice started to melt and drown Odenmaa, the very few of them left took pairs of the animals with them and sailed through a passageway melted by the stream to Bockland, an island outside of Sweden later named Gotland

After staying there for a thousand years the Asers headed back to Odenmaa, except Sven and Dan who went to Sweden and Denmark to rehabit the ringlands

During ALTLANDIS the Vaners developed into ten different races, mythologies and languages outside the icebergs

The Asers lived in Odenmaa again till the year 1050 when the crusader army sent by the Pope destructed Odenmaa and created a new information system based on the written word, not spoken as it used to be

Alt-land-is, all land's ice
Alt-land-is, all land's ice

This is a tiny part of a story that takes 20 years to tell two hours a day brought to us as family tradition by the last Aser since 1984, according to the saga 10000 years after the end of the ice age

– When Something Old Dies (Reprise) –

[Verse]
Empty faces surrounded with hairdresses
Wondering 'round with hard thoughts in their minds, I
Wonder why can't they see their lives as a big fantasy
That gives a chance to see everything
As we know it's all there just do anything
Pick up your first thought and take that adventure
I'm sure you'll be much happier than if you're stuck
With the idea of doing what you're expected

[Chorus]
Everyone is a star in their movie
It can be made so boring or groovy
It's about time we all realize
Something new borns when something old dies
Something new borns when something old dies
Something new borns when something old dies
Something new borns when something old dies...
