Joonas’ candle wax

Joonas brings in a plate of softened candle wax. Pilvi offers no other commentary.

Jaakko is unimpressed with everyone’s prize submissions, claiming that none are surprising, or even particularly pleasant to touch, and so he awards everyone 2 points.

However, Jaakko awards a bonus point to Joonas, as candle wax “demands piety”, given the labour-intensive process needed to make wax, as well as for having the courage to touch it when it’s hot.
