You are correct
Its a tomte or vätte, most commonly translated to goblin but more similar to house spirit. Impregnerad is the swedish word of “impregrated by something”, used about tent cloth, boots or other items, very rarely about creatures where the words gravid or havande is used.
I didnt finish it, the prose and sense of humour was very far from my taste.
I do still use it as an example of dedicating to a style, or as in this case, an example of hard to read text
Try to read “Bored of the Rings”, I made two chapters before I had to put it down

There is a possibility to make revenue, I "just "need to cut down the vegetation and dike around everything plus preparing the clay soil so I can grow things. In that way Im like a capitalist with unrealized profits bound in my land. The ROI would be measured in decades at best but there is potential.
My neighbours land is too small to get value of a harvester but if he didnt value his time he would profit by harvesting the trees and replant, or remake the land into fields for food.
All Im saying is that there will always be problems by letting someone (either person or entity) decide what is private vs personal property. Id rather that all land in the village become communal, and being used by someone who actually work the land. The centralization inherent in communism is problematic since the local village community risk the land becoming state property with relocation as only option
I agree with you, some things are common sense.
I just see the issues with the power invested in the institution or persons who decides the non-obvious issues.
Maybe in your economic system, here in sweden my house is a registred business because it has 4 hectares of swamp land, my neighbours house is registred business because it has 10 hectares of woods (enskild firma, gårdsfastighet and skogsfastighet respectively). Another person in the village got an AB (aktiebolag, registred stock business) which he uses for his one person welding business.
Plus the problem of who decides what is personal vs private ownership.
Catching them is the fun part, its what comes after that sucks
I miss all those super weird XP editions seemingly made by colourblind and hyper 8 year olds (at least in taste). Like rockets, gold or muscle car themed distros.
Nowadays all themes seems so… adult and boring. Tried to find some weird stuff in Plasma but alas
