“Oh, Christopher, look,” say the Antisnatter, and he point to the open roof, positioned precisely to match where the Christmas Star is when it’s at its zenith! (It’s got like an openey iris thing, but wood.) And through it they can see a great bright light shining down! It is the Christmas Star! It’s right overhead!

“Seasons Greetings, Chris Kringle,” he say horribly!

It’s light come down DIRECTLY OVER the grottoe!!!

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

And all through the house,

Yeah this is way too dark. I suspect my colourist wife was busy that day or she'd never have let this happen.

The Dark Elves stationed in secret places by the Antisnatter – Snogran warned us of nasty elves!! She saw them!! – do motions with their arms and fists, and they all press buttons in unison!

And a BIG BEAM OF POWER go shooting through secret shutes!

The shutes that were made secret by seeming to be fruit dispensers, for fruit like Snatter’s lovely melon! That’s how he made it so nobody questioned them, he disguised them as part of the idyllic perfect Grotto, but actually they were for this!

and it goes BOOO….

“What do you mean?” say Duddles.

“It’s how he defeated all those enemies. He has a magic sack, and it produces just the right present for whoever he’s met.”

“I wonder what the best Christmas present could be,” say Duddles throughtfully, “for a person so deeply opposed to Christmas.”

and then they look up and see something…. horrible
