The Winter Festival on Our Albia - Post-script

Hello everyone! This is Pixis. I hope you guys liked this year's CCSF story! I just kind of went with what I could think of and had fun with it, I hope it was fun for you guys too. I wanted to share a couple of fun facts about things that happened while I was working on it.

Over the course of the series, there were:

• 7 metarooms involved in pictures
• 17 creatures alive during the main part of the series
• 25 baby creatures born
• 2 creatures actively involved in the story died and had to be replaced (lol)
• Although I spent about an hour-ish on writing each post (I know they're short, but I'm picky, haha), only 2 hours and 34 minutes total passed in the game's world

In addition, I also encountered a strange occurrence in which some of the C3 Yule Crackers spawned Ettin eggs when opened! Yes, really. I don't know why or how this happened. Here are the babies:

I hope everyone has a great holiday season, and enjoy the rest of the CCSF! <3

The Winter Festival on Our Albia - Day 14 (END)

With the double-dose of snow now blasting over the garden, everyone gathered back up to see that the Dragonfly Demon Ettins were in the middle, with huge grins on their faces. "While you guys were out chasing for frogs, we put together a little game!"

Soon enough, all of the frogs were safely back in the pond, and it was all thanks to the quick action from the Sabertooth Norns. I didn't realize just how helpful they'd been! Now we could all go back to celebrating the Winter Festival, instead of spending the day chasing frogs around.

"Come on, everyone! Get as many of the frogs as you can - let's get them all back to the pond!"

"And... and be gentle with them, too!" Anni called after me, her arms full of frogs as she rushed past me to get them to safety. What a disaster...

The Winter Festival on Our Albia - Day 11

After all of the gift-sharing festivities, everyone carried on happily with their afternoon. Some of us decided to spend the time running around and playing in the snow, while others stayed closer to the kitchen to chat and share stories over cups of coffee and Quirky Cookies.

Once everyone had had their fun, I was finally able to get the group all gathered up back together in the yard outside of our kitchen. It was time to see what kinds of things everyone brought to share together! These were things creatures had found, or made, or just really liked... each year, we all get to share a unique piece of ourselves!

The Winter Festival on Our Albia - Day 9

Well, I tried to get everyone to settle in, but it seemed like most of the group was distracted with playing outside. So, we decided to enjoy some of the party stuff for now! Like I mentioned before, we had a lot of different stuff set up for everyone to goof around with. Check out the way my planning board looks now! Guess somebody decided to have some fun with it...

The Winter Festival on Our Albia - Day 8

I'm back to write that everyone is arriving now! Of course, as I expected, the first to arrive were the Treehugger Norns. Polite and kind as always, they settled down by the fireplace where it was nice and warm. And, as I also expected, they brought along a couple of different kinds of little critters from their forest to visit us!

Today's the day!

Today's the day today's the day today's the day! The Winter Festival is starting! I'm sure I'll be busy all day helping everyone arrive, but I'll make sure to keep coming back and updating these notes, just because... y'know, it'll be really neat to read someday, right?
