Christmas.

[snitchnipped]

Happy Holidays, everyone!

It's been a busy couple of weeks. I went back to the Midwest for the holidays and am staying at a crowded house full of family and holiday distractions. On top of that, we had an open house to prepare for, so things have been non-stop.

I have finally completed my Christmas fic! I fully intended for it to go out Christmas Eve. Ah well, it didn't. But at least I was able to give it the attention I wanted to. It did end up longer and more introspective than originally planned... but oh well.

Behold, I bring you Hail to the Days.

This story takes place after Dichotomy, but before Splintered. It is meant to set up a few things for my Narnia Big Bang, Fuel to Fire, and other stories and plots and whatnots to potentially follow. Familiarity with both previously published stories is highly recommended!

Title comes from the traditional English carol known by either the same name (All Hail to the Days), or its more popular one To Drive the Cold Winter Away. Full lyrics may be found here.
