On the sixth day of Christmas, my stories gave to me...
six skeins of black yarn,
five glowing wreaths...
four dragon eggs,
three blank stares,
two chestnuts soaked,
and a blue crab in a scrap treeee
Welcome to the cold, evil heart of Gerdin. Home to the Out from the Stellular crew.
Apparently, everyone heard me say, "Send me something that relates to your Christmas traditions so I can talk about you," and figured that meant just send me gifts.
Or at least that's what Afi heard.
She went through and bought me six gIaNt balls of black yarn so I can crochet or knit myself a sweater. Apparently that's what Gavin gets her every year.
Kendall wanted to get me something that showcase the aCtUaL Gerdish traditions, but in true OftS team communication, Afi got me yarn without telling anyone except Perce who was reading and probably didn't even hear her.
Haydun managed to show me what they were going to send me, which is a six piece nativity, hand carved from alabaster stone. It is so cute, and apparently in Padong, nativities are very big and well respected this time of year. A little something that makes my heart happy in a story where it isn't made happy much.
Also I did not mean to say "apparently" as much as I did...
Aww you get a six piece nativity! That's so fun!
