::reads all the posted missives within the blink of an eye::
Well look at all these snotty kids Rud ::He rubs the fiery red nose of his steed:: No wonder they didn't mail their lists to me they've all been too busy bickering ::He gives the snow white beard a few tugs:: Well Santa's feeling generous this year, so I'll let even the snottiest snoot request ONE gift this year. ::He pats down his pockets and finds naught, reaching down to one of his helpers he plucks a quill from the little pointy eared ones hat::

To all ye overly boastful duelers of sword, you've made an old man come to you this year so get your quills ready and start penning something of use. All may request one gift this year so long as you post it here in time for me to make my rounds. Parents are invited to make request for their children who are not of an age to write. Last year your requests tended to be on the sharp and pointy
side...I'll Have None Of It This Year!!!! I have to sit with that sack of mine and protruding weapons are not a bit of fun! ...Besides I am sure all of you have more than enough fighting gear. I will end this note with a list of things NOT to ask for. Please leave your one item lists here, and I will come to check and collect them periodically. Remember BE NICE!

No weapons!
No wishing anyone dead ( not even the ever common Jonalyn Nenshen Starfare)
No wishing any house to fall
No wishing to win a match by any means other than skill
No wishing for skill
No weapons!!
No making Santa go back and add more to this list of No
You may wish for love, but be prepared to be rejected
Men cannot wish for a kiss from Santa
Men cannot wish to be Ladies (G' I know all about it...)
Ladies wouldn't wish to be men so no concerns there
No weapons!!!

That which I wish for would not be forthcoming. So I'll hold onto my wish and keep it close.

::the guardian leaves a most brief note::

Sleep.

Sleep....

Sleep... just one blessed uninterrupted night.

::backs away from the board after reading the note from Santa, and sits down on the curb to think... smiling inwardly as he thinks of all the really important things that beg to be wished for.. priceless gifts like peace, love, honor, respect, friendships and on and on... Stands and reads the note again, shaking his head as he realizes there's nothing in particular that he wants for himself... Walks away still
thinking...

::the Warlord, seeing the chance for wishes, excitedly draws forth his pen. A slow frown eases over his face, however, as he sees the second "NO", and even further grasps his features noting the example. He tucks his pen away and wanders off with a "Hmmph."::

::Blinks, seeing the supposed jolliest man in the world making the remark about Jona... Feels really bad for all the kids that have to read the note from Santa saying such about another person. Reads the note, mumbling:: At least he brings joy to the children that do read it.

::Writes simply::
Best wishes to all with the holiday season coming!

What a rude comment regarding Jonalyn, despite giving benefit of the doubt that it was intended to be humorous. Making jokes at someone else's expense is inappropriate.

Santa,

I would like to grant a wish.. One spry Irish nanny will be heading to Athlstan's to help the new parents get some deserved rest providing they chose to accept.

To all who have taken concern of my mention of the Queen of Westridge, rest assured Santa has no ill will twards her. Just a fat man poking some fun. The regent has made great sacrifices and will be rewarded in kind as will her charges... if I can find them.

::squints looking over the penmanship:: My, but Santa's helpers do abound, eh Rud? ::He turns to the beast and gives a wink:: We'll let it stand since I do agree with all that's written. ::He looks around seeing the arena is not quite empty:: hmm I think we've been spotted Rud.

Well, I still don't understand this holiday... I suppose it's a belated celebration of the Winter Solstice.

In any event... I have everything I could ever wish for, so I can only wish for others to be as blest as Jhess and I are.
If that's too much to ask for, then how about the safety of my unborn daughter, Adelie?
It's just so hard to think of things for myself...
I'll bring my daughter here over the weekend, I'm sure she can think of something for herself.

Santa~

I'm sorry, but you are not the man who can grant me my wish.

Thanks all the same,
