Dear Laura,
Why didn't Santa Norn come this year? I was trying my best but he didn't come to my house last night. Why didn't he? I'm so sad! Please help.

Dear Disappointed Child Norn,
The Fallow Norns are on strike! Pulling the sleigh through the cold skies of Albia, and the chilly vacuum around the Ark, gave one of them a cold so awful that his nose glows bright red! Olive, another Fallow Norn, now laughs and calls him names, while the rest worry about their healthcare plan. The Ettins have also joined in with the protest, refusing to make any more toys with the gadgets they stole throughout the year, until the healthcare improves. Now parents everywhere have to buy their own presents for their hatchlings. Even the Grendels, who worked so hard to earn their stocking full of coal, have to spend the rest of the winter with an empty fireplace. Don't worry though, I'm sure Santa Norn will be able to smooth things over with his employees and you'll get your presents soon enough!
