The Gift Giver[edit]

In the far, far north; there is a legend of a saintly man who goes upon the world to give gifts to good boys and girls. He does this on a holiday in the winter. Many children children believe in him, and eagerly wait for this day. Most adults disregard him as a myth, however, some adults truly believe in him.
