[ A close-up of Chrichter's mask fills the screen. It is dark save for the sliver of light that illuminates the mask. Quiet save for the eerie sound of heavily filtered breathing. When the seconds have stretched into minutes, the lights turn on. The mask is pulled off to reveal a young blonde with a severe case of helmet hair.
She grins and waves. ]
Hiiiii. If we haven't formally met, my name is Yelena. I don't know how relevant this will be now that we've left Serthica but I'm sharing in case it means something to anyone else.
I ran into Chrichter in the desert. Not a very straightforward man, I have to say. But he did reveal that Remembrance was stoking conflict between the two citadels as more of a distraction than anything else. He seemed to think it was their job to keep the people from realizing how many among them were undead. To that end, they were also replacing the mannequin people as they deteriorated.
[ She pauses and seems to think for a moment, tapping a finger against her lips. ]
While I have your attention, I'm curious how many of us are familiar with Christmas. I love American Christmases, they are so fun. You decorate a whole tree indoors, there's a myth about a fat old man who brings presents, and you get drunk off this egg booze and sing terrible songs.
I think we could use some holiday cheer so please let me know if you'd like to help me make the inn look a little more festive. We will need to chop down a tree and carry it back inside. If you have any ideas for decorations, that would also be welcome. And if you have your own holiday traditions let's include those too.
Oh, I almost forgot the ugly sweaters! Does anyone know how to knit?

Did you remove it from him by force?
[ Is he... alive? ]

[ Eda grins at the mention of Christmas. ]
Oh, that holiday the humans go crazy about. Yeah, I've seen it. Not as good as the one where they dress up trying to be spooky and demonic, though. That one's adorable.

Did he survive?

Maybe it was an apology gift for nearly taking my head off.

[ She tilts her head slightly, considering. ]
But I was surprised to get the mask. I thought it was helping him breathe.

Did he at least wash it?
[ Does it small dank and sweaty? He would not have put it on. ]

It's supposed to filter toxins and reveal undeath but I haven't had the opportunity to test that.

And he's interested in the information about Remembrance, but he's not sure if he....gets most of it. Things are still rather befuddling. So instead; ]
I have never heard of "Christmas", or "American Christmas", before. But there are certainly many celebrations where trees are decorated...
This is a...tree that grows outdoors, but is then brought inside? Not a potted one?
