Starting out

Talking to the squire

Talk about the Christmas event.
- Player: Hello. Merry Christmas!
- Squire: Hi [player name]... I'm so sad, my life is over!
- Player: Over?! What do you mean? It's Christmas, the season of joy!
- Squire: I know, but even that can't help me. I have had such an accident, the likes of which has never been seen before!
- Player: What happened? It can't be that bad?
- Squire: Oh, but it is! It is the Falador Christmas Festival soon, and I am playing the part of Santa for the grotto.
- Player: That explains the outfit! But not the problem.
- Squire: I'm getting to the problem!
- Squire: In my rush to get things ready for the grotto, I put my Santa outfit in the wash...
- Squire: ...with Sir Vyvin's armour, and the armour has gone pink!
- Squire: It's so terrible! A white knight can't have pink armour, they're not pink knights!
- Player: Oh dear, I know your pain! I once put a pair of red underwear in the wash with my white socks. I ended up with pink socks!
- Squire: You have been in such a world ending predicament before?! How did you survive?
- Player: I wore the socks; they looked nice!
- Player: Now I just buy pink socks so they're already pink. That way I don't have to worry about mixing my reds and whites anymore. Small problems require big solutions!
- Squire: That won't work here! Sir Vyvin needs his armour, and it needs to be white. If I can't get rid of the pink, I will be fired from my job, and have nowhere to go!
- Player: Hmm, have you tried washing it again? Maybe the pink will fade a bit.
- Player: Then you just need to wash it over and over until it is white again.
- Squire: I've already tried that. No luck! It's as pink as ever.
- Squire: I do know of a way to fix it, but I don't have the time due to my grotto preparations and squire duties.
- Squire: I am ruined!
- Start the Christmas 2021 Event?
- Maybe I could help! (Yes)
  - Player: Maybe I could help you clean the armour? Then you can focus on the other things.
  - Squire: Would you really? That would help me out so much!
  - Squire: I don't have anything I can pay you with, though. I barely scrape a living together as a squire.
  - Player: No payment needed! It is the season of giving after all. Consider it a gift.
  - Squire: You'd do that for me?
  - Player: Of course! And with my sock experience, I feel like I'm well suited to the job.
  - Squire: Thank you! Okay, so, there is a magical cleaning potion, it gets the stains out of anything!
  - Squire: We need a few items, and then we combine them using a secret recipe. I have the recipe here, but sadly none of the items.
  - Player: Where did you get this secret recipe from?
  - Squire: Let's just say I have been in this situation before. Exploding swamp toads and white armour don't mix very well.
  - Player: I don't want to know what you were doing with swamp toads, let alone exploding ones.
  - Player: Okay, so what items do I need to gather?
  - Squire: Luckily it's not too many, only three! Festive white wine, festive cinnamon, and festive holly.
  - Player: Any idea where I can find these?
  - Squire: Yes! I'll note them down on a bit of paper that you can take with you.
  - The squire starts writing.
  - Festive cinnamon - Herquin, who is sorting out food for the festival. Runes the gem shop south of the west bank.
  - Festive holly - Cecilia, who is sorting out decorations for the festival. Can be found on the bridge in the park.
  - Festive white wine - Larry, who is sorting out drinks for the festival. Can be found in his house, east of the park.
  - Squire: There, I've added some extra details to help you out. You should update it as you go, to keep track of things!
  - Squire: Here you go, look after them.
  - If the player has a free inventory space:
    - The squire hands you the notes.
    - Squire: Best of luck. Come back once you've got the items. I'll finish off preparing the grotto.
    - Player: I'll do my best, see you soon!
    - (End of dialogue)
  - If the player doesn't have a free inventory space:
    - Squire: Oh, you don't have any room for the notes. Come back when you have a space!
    - (End of dialogue)
- Sounds like it! (No)
  - Player: Sounds like it! It's over for you!
  - Squire: Is there nothing you can do to help?
  - Player: I am too busy sorry, but good luck!
  - (End of dialogue)

    - (Same as above)

    - (End of dialogue)
- I've lost my notes!
  - Player: I've lost my notes!
  - Squire: Don't worry, I found them earlier. They must have blown into the castle courtyard on the wind!
  - Squire: Here you go.
  - The squire hands you the notes.
  - Squire: Try not to lose them this time!
- Other Christmas event things.
  - Player: Hello!
  - Squire: Hi [player name], how goes it?
  - Player: I haven't got any of the items yet.
  - Squire: The festival is getting closer, and Sir Vyvin's armour is still pink. We can't take too long!
  - Player: I will get on it right away.
  - Squire: Remember to check your notes if you need some help. Good luck!

Festive cinnamon

Talking to Herquin

Talk about the Christmas event.
- Player: Hello!
- Herquin: Hi there [player name], is there anything I can help you with?
- Player: Yes! I am looking for some festive cinnamon, I was told you'd be the guy to talk to.
- Herquin: Festive cinnamon ey, I have some indeed! However I am in a pickle.
- Player: You're in a pickle? But you don't look like you're in a pickle? You're not green!
- Herquin: It's a figure of speech, it means- actually, never mind. I have a bit of a problem!
- Player: Oh, you should have said! What is it? Maybe I can help in exchange for some of that festive cinnamon!
- Herquin: I was hoping you'd say that! I'm baking some gingerbread gnomes for the Falador Christmas Festival, which as you know, is very soon!
- Herquin: The problem is I can't find any chocolate chips, and I need them for the gingerbread gnome decorations. Nobody will like my gnomes if they don't have decorations.
- Player: I see I see, that is a problem indeed! Would you like me to go and grab you some more chocolate chips from the shop?
- Herquin: If it was that easy I'd have done it myself. The shops are out of stock!
- Herquin: I can only think of one thing. My good friend Larry's two children, Buoy and Gurl, often come and visit me during the week.
- Herquin: I always let them take the bags of chocolate chips with them when they go and play, keeps them busy and away from the jewellery!
- Herquin: They always play just south of here, there is a nice grassy area with some bushes and trees to climb.
- Herquin: Maybe they left some bags there. I had an entire box full, so they must have taken them all by accident!
- Player: I'll go and have a look!
- Herquin: Thank you! Search around the bushes south of here. I hope you find some, otherwise we're going to be in real trouble.
- Player: Trouble? I don't want to be in trouble, I haven't done anything wrong, I'm trying to help!
- Herquin: It's another figure of spee- don't worry. Good luck, come back quick if you find some!
- (End of dialogue)

- Player: Hi there Herquin!
- Herquin: Have you had any luck yet?
- Player: Not yet, I'm still searching.
- Herquin: That's ok, but don't take too long, the festival is soon. Try searching the bushes south of here, that's where Buoy and Gurl spend most of their time.
- Player: Okay, I'll go and do that now.
- Herquin: Thank you, good luck!
- (End of dialogue)

Festive holly

Talking to Cecilia

Talk about the Christmas event.
- Player: Hi Cecilia!
- Cecilia: Hello [player name]. Merry Christmas! Or, at least it would be merry...
- Player: Would be? What is wrong?
- Cecilia: I run the secret Santa for the Falador Christmas Festival, but it has all gone wrong!
- Player: What do you mean, all gone wrong? Are there not enough presents?
- Cecilia: No, that's not it. I have enough presents, but I don't know who to deliver them to!
- Cecilia: Last year everyone wrote a riddle on their present's nametag instead of a name. I didn't know who to deliver the presents to, so they all went to the wrong people!
- Cecilia: It was a complete disaster! They've done it again this year, but I've made sure to spend time figuring out the riddles so I know who to deliver the presents to.
- Player: That sounds quite fun! So what is the problem then? Sounds like you've got everything figured out.
- Cecilia: I almost have. The festival is about to begin, but there are three presents left to deliver, and I can't figure out who they're meant to go to.
- Player: Maybe I could help, I'm pretty good at solving riddles!
- Cecilia: Would you really? Thank you ever so much! Is there anything I can do to repay you?
- Player: Well, since you mention it, I'm looking for some festive holly.
- Cecilia: Festive holly? I used most of it up for the festival decorations, but I have a little bit left.
- Cecilia: If you can solve the riddles and deliver the presents, I'd be happy to give you the remaining festive holly!
- Player: Sounds fair to me, let's get those presents delivered!
- Cecilia: These are the presents. Each present has a riddle on the nametag, figure out who the present is for and deliver it to them.
- Cecilia hands you three presents.
- Cecilia: Good luck, I hope you can solve them!
- (End of dialogue)
(Non-event dialogue) Talk about other things.

Talking to Cecilia again

Talk about the Christmas event.
- Cecilia: How is it going?
- Player: I'm still thinking about it, I haven't solved any yet.
- Cecilia: Thank you. I'm sure you can do it. I believe in you!
- If missing secret santa present:
  - Player: It's no problem! I do have a slight problem myself though...
  - Cecilia: What is it?
  - Player: I have misplaced a present.
  - Cecilia: Oh, don't worry! I put a magical spell on all the presents. It teleports them to me if they get lost, just in case something like this happens! One second...
  - Cecilia: Found it! Here you go.
  - Cecilia hands you the present.
  - Cecilia: Good luck, try not to lose them again!

Talking to the hairdresser

I have a present for you!
- Hairdresser: Hello [sir/madam]. Thank you for the gift!
- Player: You're welcome! I'm delivering some of the secret Santa gifts for Cecilia.
- Hairdresser: That's great! I was going to offer to help but I've been very busy doing all the Christmas haircuts.
- Hairdresser: I've been so busy that my scissors are going blunt!
- Player: That must be a lot of haircuts!
- Hairdresser: Loads! But I don't mind, everyone wants to look good for the festival.
- You hand the present to the hairdresser.

- Player: Sure, hope it's something you like.
- Hairdresser: I'm sure it will be!
- The hairdresser opens the gift.
- Hairdresser: Yes!
- Hairdresser: Some new scissors!
- Player: Isn't that exactly what you wanted? You just mentioned your scissors were going blunt!
- Hairdresser: It is indeed! What a coincidence!
- Player: A coincidence I'm sure. Did you ask anybody for new scissors?
- Hairdresser: No, I never ask for a specific present, where is the fun in that?
- Hairdresser: I may have mentioned the problem to my customers though.
- Player: Who happen to be all the residents of Falador.
- Hairdresser: Yes!
- Hairdresser: Oh, I see what you're saying.
- Player: So is it really a surprise that you got new scissors?
- Hairdresser: No, I suppose not.
- Player: I'm glad you like them though. Always good to get something that you actually want!
- Hairdresser: Tell you what, I really want to try them out. Would you like a haircut?
- Hairdresser: Free of charge of course!
- Go on then!
  - Player: Go on then! I could do with a good haircut.
  - Hairdresser: Amazing, let's do this. Merry Christmas [sir/madam]!
  - Player: Merry Christmas to you too!
  - Hairdresser's Salon interface opens.
- No thanks, I like my hair!
  - Player: No thanks, I like my hair!
  - Hairdresser: But a free haircut is always nice! Are you sure?
  - Okay fine, freshen me up!
    - Player: Okay fine, freshen me up! I suppose I could do with a good haircut.
    - Hairdresser: Amazing, let's do this. Merry Christmas [sir/madam]!
    - Player: Merry Christmas to you too!
    - Hairdresser's Salon interface opens.
  - Yeah I'm sure, I don't need a haircut!
    - Player: Yeah I'm sure, I don't need a haircut!
    - Hairdresser: Fair enough, I'll find someone else then! Thank you for delivering the present. Are you going to the festival later?
    - Player: I will be there!
    - Hairdresser: See you there then. Merry Christmas [sir/madam]!

I have a present for you!
- Wyson the gardener: For me? Is this my secret Santa present?
- Player: Yes it is. I'm doing some of the deliveries for Cecilia.
- Wyson the gardener: That's nice of you! She's been very busy this year.
- You hand the present to Wyson.
- Player: Any idea what it could be?
- Wyson the gardener: None at all, this is exciting! What could it be... a hornless unicorn? Pumpkin pie? A party hat?
- Wyson the gardener: Let's find out!
- Wyson opens the gift.
- Wyson the gardener: It's...
- Wyson the gardener: Woad leaves!!
- Player: Oh no, I'm sorry Wyson!
- Wyson the gardener: Sorry? What ever for? I love woad leaves!
- Player: But don't you have enough already?
- Wyson the gardener: Enough? You can never have enough woad leaves! You can sell them, make dyes from them, even just keep them, so many things!
- Wyson the gardener: I love woad leaves!
- Player: Oh, well that is some good luck then that it's something you like so much!
- Wyson the gardener: Luck? Not at all, I always ask for woad leaves. I get them every year!
- Player: Every year? And you ask for them? Then surely you knew what you were getting?
- Wyson the gardener: Yes, I always know, but I like to pretend I don't, it's more exciting that way!
- Player: Right, okay. I guess that's fair enough. I'm glad you like them!
- Wyson the gardener: I do, very much so! Will you be going to the Falador Christmas Festival?
- Player: Of course! I've got a few more things to do and then I'll go.
- Wyson the gardener: Sounds great, see you at the festival. Merry Christmas!
- Player: Merry Christmas!

Talking to Wayne

I have a present for you!
- Wayne: Wow, that's for me? Thank you so much!
- Player: It's not from me, it's your secret Santa present! I don't know who it's from.
- Wayne: But you're not Cecilia?
- Player: I'm helping her out with the deliveries! She was struggling with some of the riddles.
- Wayne: Oh dear, I forgot about the riddles! Poor Cecilia. I'm sure she appreciates you helping her out.
- You hand the present to Wayne^[sic]
- Wayne: Let's open this up!
- Wyson opens the gift.
- Wayne: Oh my...
- Player: What? Is everything ok?
- Wayne: ...it's goblin mail! I've ALWAYS wanted goblin mail!
- Wayne: I tried to do a quest once that I needed goblin mail for, but I couldn't find any, so I gave up.
- Wayne: Now I can finish that quest and become an adventurer!
- Wayne: I will slay dragons, hunt demons, save kingdoms! You will soon see me in the guild of Legends!
- Player: I... don't want to put a spanner in the works, but I think you need three goblin mail for that quest.
- Wayne: Three?! How do you know this? How do you know what quest I am on? Are you trying to beat me to the reward?!
- Player: No! Let's just call it a hunch, a strong feeling, a bit of Christmas intuition. You definitely need three!
- Wayne: Hmm okay. Well, I have one goblin mail now. I can ask for another one next year, and one the year after.
- Wayne: And then I will go and help the goblins and become an adventurer!
- Player: That's quite a long time to wait. What if somebody else completes the quest?
- Wayne: They won't. It's a very difficult quest, and only I know the location!
- Player: Isn't it north of Falador? Just past Doric's hut?
- Wayne: What? How do you know?!
- Player: That was a guess, another Christmas intuition!
- Wayne: That's a lucky guess. Please don't tell anybody, and don't venture there yourself, it's too dangerous!
- Player: I won't, it all sounds too scary for me. Goblins, ahhh!
- Player: Good luck on becoming an adventuer!
- Wayne: Thank you! Until I get my goblin mail, feel free to come visit any time. I sell a lot of chainmail myself.
- Wayne: I hope to see you at the festival, maybe we can talk more about adventuring! Merry Christmas!
- Player: Merry Christmas!

Festive white wine

Talking to Larry

Talk about the Christmas event.
- Player: Hello Larry, I was wondering if you could help me with something?
- Larry: That depends on what it is! I'm quite busy preparing things for the festival.
- Player: I'm looking for some festive white wine. I was told you'd be the person to speak to!
- Larry: That would be correct. I'm sorting out refreshments for the festival.
- Larry: I do have some festive white wine here, however I'm wondering if you'd be able to do me a favour first? In return for the festive white wine!
- Player: That sounds reasonable! What can I do for you?
- Larry: Thanks. It's actually my children, Buoy and Gurl, that need help. They want to build a snowman, but I've just been too busy to help them. I feel so bad!
- Player: Ah, so you'd like me to build them a snowman?
- Larry: Yes! Just a simple snowman. It would mean the world to them, and me. I'd be happy to give you some festive white wine in exchange.
- Player: I haven't built a snowman in ages, it should be fun!
- Larry: Thanks again. They'll be so excited. They're both outside playing in the snow, you should speak to them to see what sort of snowman they'd like.

Talking to Buoy and Gurl

Player: Hello Buoy and Gurl!
Gurl: Hello [sir/madam]!
Buoy: How do you know our names?
Player: I had a chat with your dad. He's super busy, so he's asked me to help you build a snowman!
Gurl: Really? We get to make a snowman?
Player: Yes! And I'm going to build whatever snowman you want!
Buoy: Yay! Can it be three snowballs tall?
Gurl: But I want it to be five tall!
Buoy: Five is a bad number, it should be three tall!
Gurl: You're a bad number. Five is so much better.
Player: Okay, okay, wait a second. Why don't we meet in the middle. How about four snowballs tall?
Buoy and Gurl think for a second.
Gurl: Fine, it can be four tall.
Buoy: Yes, four tall is okay.
Player: Great. Now, we need to pick what size snowballs we want for each tier. Why don't you take it in turns? You can do two each.
Gurl: The bottom one should be a huge snowball!
Buoy: The next one should be big!
Player: This is working nicely, we're half way! What about the top two parts?
Gurl: The next one should be a small snowball!
Buoy: No, it should be little!
Gurl: But it needs to be small, little would look bad.
Buoy: It wouldn't look bad. Small is better for decorations.
Gurl: My decorations will fit on a little one.
Buoy: Why do you always ruin everything?
Gurl: You ruin everything with your silly ideas!
Player: Okay, okay, wait. This clearly isn't working, and I don't want you two to fall out. It's Christmas, we shouldn't be arguing!
Player: How about I make you both a snowman? It can be whatever height and size you like. One each!
Gurl: So mine can be five snowballs tall?
Buoy: And mine can be three snowballs tall?
Player: Yes, I'll make you both whatever snowman you like!
Player: What would you both like?
Buoy: I'd like mine to be three snowballs tall please! And I want the bottom one to be small, the middle one big, and the top one huge!
Gurl: I'd like mine to be five snowballs tall please! I want the bottom one to be humongous, then large, then normal, then big, and then a little one for the top!
Player: That's two very different snowmen, I see why this didn't work before!
Player: What do all these different sizes mean? Humongous? Normal? Little? How big are those?
Gurl: You silly billy! Humongous is the biggest snowball of course!
Buoy: Normal is the normal size that you get when you make a snowball normally. It's easy!
Player: Right, thank you for clearing that up. I'll figure something out.
Player: What are you two going to do for decorations?
Buoy: I already know what I want mine to look like!
Gurl: Me too!
Player: Why don't you guys find some decorations while I build the snowmen? Then you can add them once I'm done.
Buoy: Okay [sir/madam]!
Gurl: We will do that!
Buoy and Gurl go back to playing in the snow.
Player: Well, that seems sorted. I should speak to Larry again, and see if he has any advice about building the snowmen.
(End of dialogue)

Talking to Buoy and Gurl before speaking to Larry again

Player: Hello there!
Buoy: Have you started making the snowmen yet?
Gurl: You should talk to dad if you need some help, he knows how to make snowmen!
Buoy: Yeah, he always used to make really big ones with us!
Player: Maybe I'll go talk to him and see what advice he has.
Gurl: He'll say, make them really tall!
Buoy: He'll say make them shorter, because that's better!
Buoy and Gurl wander off, arguing about what size snowman is the best.
Player: I should go and speak to Larry. I'm sure he has some handy advice for me!

Talking to Larry after talking to his children

Talk about the Christmas event.
- Player: Hey Larry, I've spoken to Buoy and Gurl! I'm going to make them both a snowman!
- Larry: Both? You're making them one each?
- Player: Yep! We tried to settle on an idea for one but they couldn't agree. It seemed easier to just make two.
- Larry: Ah, yes, Buoy and Gurl can be a bit like that. Both very set on what they want.
- Larry: It's a nice thing, but has its draw backs. They struggle to agree on things sometimes!
- Larry: Are you okay making two?
- Player: Yes, if I'm already making one then it's not that much more effort to make another.
- Player: It's the time of giving anyway, and you're giving me the festive white wine in return, so it all balances out!
- Larry: As long as you're sure! I usually dig some snow from the snow piles that form around the city, and then roll that snow into snowballs.
- Larry: You'll need a spade to dig up the snow. There is one outside the front of the house, you're free to take it.
- Player: Thank you. I also noted down the different size snowballs that the children want, so I can check my notes if I forget.
- Player: Then when I've rolled snowballs of the required sizes, I'll pick them up and place them on the spots to build the snowmen!
- Larry: Good planning! There are two areas of scuffed snow on the ground by Buoy and Gurl, they'd make good spots for the two snowmen.
- Larry: Have fun!

Player: Of course you can. Are they what you wanted?
Gurl: Mine is perfect!
Buoy: Mine too. It's just how I wanted it.
Player: I am happy to hear that. It was harder work than I thought.
Gurl: You did a good job. Thank you very much [sir/madam].
Buoy: Yes, thank you [sir/madam]!

- Larry: You've made their Christmas, and allowed me to finish my preparations for the festival too!
- Larry: Here is the festive white wine you wanted. I hope you enjoy it!
- Larry: I've picked out a nice cold bottle for you.
- Larry hands you the festive wine.
- Player: Thank you!
- Larry: Don't drink it all at once!
- Player: I'm not actually planning on drinking it. It's for a magical potion to help the squire with some...!
- Player: You know what, never mind. It'll take too long to explain. Merry Christmas!
- Larry: That does indeed sound like a story for another time. Merry Christmas!

Gurl: Yeah, they took ages to do! Do you like mine?
Player: It's really good! Reminds me of something actually.
Buoy: What about mine? Do you like it?
Player: I like yours too. They both remind me of something!
Gurl: Mine is Thermy! My favourite monster! She's so big and scary, makes me go woah!
Buoy: Mine is Tempy! My favourite monster! He lives in the water, a huge mass of angry wet!
Player: They're both amazing! I didn't know you guys would be so good at decorating.
Gurl: Dad lets us decorate every year. We get a lot of practice!
Buoy: Last year we made them into the Fragment of Seren and the King Black Dragon!
Player: What... really?? I'd like to have seen that. Those sound even more difficult than these two!
Player: How do you know all these monsters anyway? There is no way your dad would let you anywhere near them!
Buoy: Dad reads us lots of stories, and we hear about them from passing adventurers, like you.
Player: You must meet some interesting and cool adventurers!
Gurl: Not as cool as you though; none of them helped us make our snowmen!
Buoy: Yes, you're the first to help us make them!
Player: Well, you're welcome. I really enjoyed it. What are you guys going to do now you're finished?
Gurl: We're going to go and play! And maybe visit the festival. Will you be there?
Player: I sure will be. Maybe see you there!
Buoy: Bye [sir/madam], Merry Christmas.
Player: Merry Christmas, have fun!

Cleaning the armour

Talking to the squire

Talk about the Christmas event.
- Player: Hello!
- Squire: Hi [player name], how goes it?
- Player: I have all the items now. Festive cinnamon, festive white wine, and festive holly!
- Squire: Amazing! Great job. Now we just need to follow the secret recipe to create the magical cleaning potion, and then use it to clean the armour.
- Squire: I hope it works!
- Squire: Ok, are you ready for the recipe?
- Player: I'm listening!
- Squire: Step one, mix the cinnamon and holly into the white wine...
- Squire: ...and that should do it. Magical cleaning potion done!
- Player: That's... it? That's the entire secret recipe?
- Squire: Yes! I'm glad I have it written down, I can never remember it otherwise.
- Player: Well it is very difficult to remember, a whole single instruction...
- Player: Isn't it just mulled wine?
- Squire: Not at all. It's completely different!
- Squire: Firstly we use white wine, not red. We all know that white wine is good at removing red wine stains, so it will work on other red stains too!
- Squire: We add the cinnamon because nobody likes a mouth full of cinnamon, not even stains!
- Squire: And we add the holly because it's spiky, to scare the stain away.
- Squire: See, completely different, you didn't think this through!
- Player: That is some flawless reasoning! Okay, it is definitely not just mulled wine with holly in it.
- Squire: Exactly. So, are you going to make the magical cleaning potion?
- Squire: Just mix the holly and cinnamon into the wine.
- Player: I thought we had to mix the cinnamon and holly into the wine?
- The squire thoroughly checks his recipe.
- Squire: Oh no! You're correct, that was close, good spot! Just mix the cinnamon and holly into the wine.
- Player: I... that's the same... sure. I'll do it right now.
- Squire: Good luck, let me have a look when you've made it!

Use festive cinnamon with festive white wine

You combine the ingredients together, adding the festive cinnamon and then the festive holly into the festive white wine, just like the squire said...
...and receive a magical cleaning potion, that is definitely not just mulled wine with holly in it!
Player: That looks right, I should show this to the squire.
(End of dialogue)

Use festive holly with festive white wine

You combined the ingredients together, adding the festive holly and then the festive cinnamon into the festive white wine, in completely the wrong order...
...you wait for the explosion...
...still waiting...
...any moment now...
...and receive a magical cleaning potion, that is defintely not just mulled wine with holly in it!
Player: That looks right, I should show this to the squire. Turns out that it didn't matter what order we mixed the ingredients together!

Talk about the Christmas event.
- Player: Hey, I've made the potion!
- Squire: Let me have a look at it please.
- The squire looks closely at the potion.
- Squire: This looks perfect! Exactly how it should look.
- Squire: Like a sort of spiced wine with some spiky plant!
- Player: But nothing like mulled wine with holly in it, right?
- Squire: Right, that's very different!
- Squire: You just need to use this on the armour now. Use a little bit on each piece, and it should clean it.
- Squire: It looks like there is enough in here for three bits of armour, which is exactly the amount we need.
- Squire: What a lucky coincidence that is!
- Squire: Here is the armour.
- The squire hands you the armour.
- Player: Thank you, I'll get the armour cleaned right now.

- If any part of the pink armour was lost:
  - Player: I have a bit of a problem, I've dropped some of the armour!

- Squire: I've almost finished preparing for the festival too. I just have one last errand to run.
- Squire: Would you take the armour to Sir Vyvin for me, while I take care of this last thing?

- Sir Vyvin: Thank you, it's spotless! Almost too clean. How did he clean it?
- Player: I errr, guess with the normal cleaning stuff!
- Sir Vyvin: You guess?
- Player: Yes, I mean, I'm sure, yes, the normal cleaning stuff!
- Sir Vyvin: You're sure? I could swear I saw him carrying my armour around earlier, and it was pink.
- Player: You did?
- Sir Vyvin: Yes, and I'm pretty sure I saw you cleaning it with a magical cleaning potion.
- Player: Well, I forgot to mention that. It was indeed pink, but it's not anymore! And I did help him with it!
- Player: Are you angry?
- Sir Vyvin: Not at all! This isn't the first time this has happened. I actually keep a few sets of armour since I never know what is going to happen to them.
- Sir Vyvin: My dear squire, while very loyal and dedicated, is quite accident-prone!
- Sir Vyvin: He once dyed a set green in an accident with exploding swamp toads. That was quite something.
- Player: He did mention that. I said I didn't want to know what he was doing with exploding swamp toads.
- Sir Vyvin: Wise decision. It makes me squeamish just thinking about it!
- Sir Vyvin: Thank you for the armour, and thank you for helping my squire sort it out. That was very kind of you.
- Player: Well it is Christmas!
- Sir Vyvin: So it is! Please don't tell him that I know. If he knew I had multiple armour sets, he might not put so much effort into cleaning them in the future!
- Player: Don't worry, your secret is safe with me.

Santa: Take a seat on my lap!
Player: I think I'll stand if that is ok.
Santa: Thank the elves! I can't feel my legs anymore, I've been getting slowly squished into this seat all day.
Player: Had a lot of visitors then?
Santa: Loads! It's been non-stop, which is great, but my poor legs. I think they're pancakes now, I'm scared to stand up.
Player: I'm glad I could give them some time to recover! It's a lovely grotto.
Santa: Thank you, we couldn't have done all this without you! The food, the drinks, the decorations, the grotto, it's all turned out great because of you.
Player: It was nothing, I had good fun helping out. I got to meet a bunch of new people, go exploring in the snow, delivered some presents, and built some snowmen!
Player: I even see Sir Vyvin here, in his clean armour!
Santa: I saw him too. Thank you for delivering the armour! It looks almost too clean doesn't it?
Player: Those magical cleaning potions are good at what they do!
Santa: Do you think he suspects anything?
Player: Nah. I'm sure he just appreciates how much of a good job you do!
Santa: I hope so. I don't know what he would do if he knew about the mistakes I've made, he'd probably fire me instantly!
Player: I have a strong hunch that he wouldn't do anything at all, he's a nice guy.
Santa: He is a nice guy, that's true. Maybe I should come clean about it?
Player: Come clean!
Santa: What?
Player: Come clean. We've been cleaning the armour. I thought you were making a pun!
Santa: Oh, I didn't even notice that!
Santa: Do you think I should tell him though?
Player: That is up to you, but I definitely wouldn't worry either way. I'd just enjoy Christmas for now!
Santa: Then I will decide later! Back on the topic of Christmas and the grotto, we would like to say thank you to you.
Santa: I have a gift for you, it's from all of us. Make sure you open it once you leave the grotto!
Santa hands you a rather large present.
Player: I will, thanks! What is it?
Santa: It's a surprise! You'll find out when you open it.
Santa: Now, I am a busy Santa, and I must get back to work! Thank you again for helping us all. You showed some true Christmas spirit!
Santa: Merry Christmas [player name]!
Player: Merry Christmas to you too!
Santa: Ho ho ho! Merry Christmas!
Cutscene ends.
Cecilia: I hope you like your presents... I mean, present. Oops.

Player: I'm sure everyone will be showing off their new haircuts after the festival!
Hairdresser: I suppose I'll have to wait until then. But for now... Santa hats, gingerbread gnomes, and mulled wine!
Player: That sounds like a good time!
Hairdresser: It does, and of course not forgetting the grotto too. I'm going to visit Santa soon.

If the player already received the present from Santa:
- Player: Yes I have, I got a present! Have you guys been?
Buoy: We haven't been yet. We have to wait until later since dad wants to come with us.
Player: That's okay, it'll be nice to go together later.
Buoy: We do have some gingerbread gnomes though^[sic]
Gurl: Yeah we have some gingerbread gnomes. Herquin gave us three each!
Player: Three each? How are you guys going to eat three each?
Buoy: Easy! I could eat four if I had that many!
Gurl: I could eat five!
Buoy: No you couldn't, you're too tiny.
Gurl: Yes I could! I could easily eat five! You couldn't even eat four!
Buoy: I'd eat four before you even eat three, you're so slow.
Gurl: No you're slow, I'd eat four before you even eat two.
Player: Hey, hey, it's Christmas! Let's be nice. You both have three, that is more than enough. No need to argue.
Gurl: I suppose.
Buoy: I'm not sure I can actually eat all these, I'm already quite full on my first one.
Player: See, you're both still on your first one, but that is okay. No need for a competition. Just enjoy the gingerbread gnomes and the festival!
Buoy: Okay [player name].
Gurl: Okay ma'am.
Player: Merry Christmas to you both, I hope you have a fun time at the grotto later!

Talk to Wyson the gardener by the grotto

Player: Hi Wyson!
Wyson the gardener: Hello [player name]! How are you doing?
Player: Very well thank you. I can't decide if I want some gingerbread gnomes or mulled wine!
Wyson the gardener: Why not both? It is Christmas after all!
Player: That is a very good point. In that case, which should I get first?
Wyson the gardener: That is a better question! Personally I favour the gingerbread gnomes. Can't beat gingerbread and chocolate.
Player: You make a compelling argument. Gingerbread gnomes it is!
Wyson the gardener: Then again I also favour mulled wine. The warm, comforting, and spiced goodness. Can't beat that either.
Player: You make another compelling argument. Now my decision is even harder!
Wyson the gardener: I'm sure you'll survive! I'm going to go and visit the grotto, see you around.

Player: I err... may have been hiding behind a tree when you came across Death. I saw the whole thing!

Player: Oh, that's awesome! Santa must have known you needed one!

Player: That is true. I'm glad you're doing well, and I hope you enjoy your new scimmy!
