Paradox Pookling™ |
(aka Santa "Pookie" Claus, the Hogfather, the Old Pook) |
At the head of the High Council of Pookling Elders sits Paradox Pookling, the wisest
old Sage of them all. Even though his name is known throughout the land, he is most loved
and revered by all as 'the Old Pook'. |
Every year on Winter Solstice Eve all the little Pookling children gather around the
bonfire in the village square, and the Old Pook arrives in his cart laden with bundles of
gifts for everyone! What is the Old Pook's secret? Where does he get all these magical
gifts? |
Well it's really no secret at all: for when the world turns to the Dark half of the
year, the Old Pook simply sends out his call into the Wyldewood, and the kindhearted faerie
spirits of the Wylde reply with overflowing gifts of Love and Joy. The Old Pook then takes
these gifts and adds a bit of his own magic and spice and stirs it all together, so that on
Solstice Eve there are sure to be plenty of wonderful presents for all the wide-eyed pookie
children, and lots of pookling laughter like tinkling chimes in the Winter wind to
celebrate the return of the Sun. |
