[Aurora is humming softly, weaving sprigs of evergreen together, a little bird handing her berries or plants, several squirrels, rabbits, and chipmunks holding twigs or pinecones but she's honestly surrounded by all sorts of animals in her home. A giant fire is going in her fireplace, the whole room gives off a feeling of warmth.]

Al...most.... done. [She held out her hand for a pinecone, the chipmunk handing it to her.] Aaand there.

[She held up the wreath.]

It may not be a traditional Evergreen Yule Wreath, but it is rather lovely.

The dried oranges were an excellent idea. [She said as she turned to look at the giant Eurasian Eagle-owl perched on the back of her chair.] Thank you for the suggestion, Vivek.

If anyone else would like, I have plenty enough to make more wreaths, especially as the solstice is almost here! Thought they may be much more traditional than this. Or, if you would like to imbue it with your own home's warmth and protection, I can show you how to make one.

Oh wow, so you have a lot of knowledge on fairies back in your world. That sounds pretty brilliant!

I’m also curious to see how they do things for this upcoming Solstice in Elphame among other things, so maybe we’ll have just to find out once we get there.

Well, not before last year. Back in my world, we celebrate Christmas more often than the Winter Solstice, but I think that there might be some similarities between the two besides being big celebrations.

Well, a lot of people in my world celebrate it for a variety of reasons: usually it is to spend time with family, to take a break from work or study, or they just enjoy the holiday in general. Or possibly all of the above.

People would often decorate the trees which include a star for a topper, have a big dinner with loved ones, and exchange presents with each other.

From what I can recall and what some places in my world believe in, someone important from ancient times was said to have been born under a big star and the whole stars shine bright against the night sky as a metaphor.

But that is all I can think of.

Aww, thanks Aurora. Maybe one day we could find the time to see the night skies and the stars real soon. That would be nice to see them up close in Avalon.

Maybe you can help me how to dance some day, I think that I am pretty rubbish with dancing and I haven’t danced a lot since, oh wow, the Yule Ball years ago.

Well, that is even more wonderful to hear. So when we can make time for some dancing lessons? I got some some free time from work before Winter Solstice festivities.

That sounds great. I am definitely looking forward to it. See you real soon.
