[k] [charaFace A 3] @Altera Santa I was all set to deliver presents to good boys and girls with my trusty sheep, Zerco, again... [k] [charaFace A 4] @Altera Santa ...but apparently no Santa can keep the job two years in a row, no matter how good they may be at it. [k] [charaFace A 6] @Altera Santa But, even if there will be no more Altera Santa, there will always be a Santa. This year, I think it should be you who takes up the mantle. [k] [charaFace A 13] @Altera Santa Ho ho ho. If you asked me to give you a reason for that, I would say it's because you and I are somewhat...similar?

[k] @Altera Santa Also, I don't know if it's with your other half or not, but I think the Christmas Grail disappeared somewhere, too.

I can't believe I[sr]lost it right after you gave it to me! [k] [turnPageOff] [charaFace E 0] @E:Quetzalcoatl But, if you think about it, Santa is all about giving presents, not getting them, yes? [k] @E:Quetzalcoatl So it feels wrong for me to[sr]receive such a grand gift... [k] @E:Quetzalcoatl ...especially since I have already obtained[sr]more than enough power to become Santa! [k] [charaFace E 1] @E:Quetzalcoatl So I'm not going to worry about the rest of the Holy Grail power going off on its own, no! [k] [turnPageOn] [charaFace A 7] @Altera Santa Good point. The power is yours to do with as you wish. As long as Christmas is peaceful, I'm a happy Santa. [k] [charaFace E 0] @E:Quetzalcoatl Sí. I might be half the goddess I once was, but I still shouldn't have any problem performing my duties as Santa. [k] [turnPageOff] @E:Quetzalcoatl In fact, I think the part of me that flew off was the part that likes things a bit of rough-and-tumble, yes! [k] @E:Quetzalcoatl So I think the peace-loving part of me should be able to handle being Santa just fine! [k] [charaTalk A] [charaFace A 8] @Altera Santa (Hmm. Now that I look more closely,[sr]I can see she's a Ruler.) [k] [charaFace A 0] @Altera Santa (Is that because the side of her that got her people[sr]to stop making human sacrifices is stronger now...?) [k] [turnPageOn] [charaTalk E] [charaFace E 0] @E:Quetzalcoatl I'm sure the half that flew off will come back on its own once Christmas is over and I'm back to normal. [k] [charaFace E 1] @E:Quetzalcoatl So don't you worry about a thing! I'm going to be the best samba Santa there ever was, yes! [k] [turnPageOn] [charaFace A 13] @Altera Santa Ho ho ho.
