Merry Christmas Special Post!

So on the night of Christmas, our special investigator and reporter for this Christmas' special post set off to the Mapler town of Happyville.

Her mission was simple. To find... Mrs Santa Claus. This elusive character is very unlike her jolly husband, whom we all know, is Mr Santa Claus.

Here is the actual mission. In our reporter's own words:

"I started off by surveying the townscape, and pressing down the "UP" key and whacking everything I see. I finally spot two snowmen sitting around a campfire. The smell of marshmallows drew me near them -- wait! That smell is the smell of MY marshmallows, coming from MY bag!

I went up to the 2 snowmen, and decided to ask them for directions. They refused to talk. Grr. So I decided to bribe them.

Me bribing the snowmen.



But they still refused to talk. Hmph. So I decided it was not worth my time talking to them, and went to 3 reindeers nearby instead.

One had a pirate look to it. Another wore those hypnotic glasses. The last, I decided, was the most normal of them all, and I went up to it, eager to get out of it a clue to where Mrs Santa Claus was.

Me bribing the reindeer.



But, NO, it refused to talk too. Undeterred, I made my way up to a house, where a camera tripod stand stood. An idea came to my mind. Occasionally Santa Claus would fly past that area with a reindeer in tow. Or rather, the reindeer tows HIM, in this case. So I decided that if I could get a picture of him "hang gliding", maybe I could get him to autograph it and I can show it to ALL my friends and tell them that I met Santa Claus in person. maybe somehow I could use it to get information out of him.

Me taking his picture.



But he just went past me. D: Without any autograph :(

So I resorted to ... tracking her.



But it didn't work D:



Finally I went to the Internet, and did a search on where she could be. I went to the location they told me to, and ... VOILA! She was there. (Oh, why didn't I do this sooner!)"

And while our reporter expresses much regret over the 1000 mesos she spent on bribing the snowmen and reindeers, and her complete overlooking of the use of the Internet, we however, have managed to come up with this post.

Yay technology! ^^

Merry Christmas everyone~ :D
