FOUR // This tree is too small for climbing.

[wavewalker]

There's a tree in the house. Why is there a tree in the house?

Some sort of holiday, I assume, but I'm pretty certain that none of the holidays of this world are like the holidays of my own. I've tried my hardest to figure out what this particular one means, based on the decorations alone, but so far my best guess is that we're to give gifts to some kind of... tree spirit. Why else leave gifts beneath a tree, right?

Mm, I doubt that's the case, though.

Could someone explain what's really going on? Please?

It is a stupid holiday. You should set yours on fire like I'm going to.

All I know is that people give presents to each other, and you're supposed to leave them under the tree until Christmas morning!

I don't really get why, though. It's kinda weird.

Ya mean Christmas? I guess they don't got it in your world either huh.

It's only the best part about being in this dumb town!

[Wasn't he saying that about Halloween a few months ago?]

. . . Except for when the presents are filled with body parts, of course.
