The North Pole held its breath beneath a sky sown with icy stars. Snow fell in a silent, endless whisper, burying the world in soft white. From the frosted windows of a log cabin, a warm golden light spilled onto the drifts, a promise against the deep cold. A monumental figure in red stood sentinel outside, his breath forming clouds in the still air. Santa Claus, the great polar bear, turned his head, his green eyes narrowing at a dark shape nearly swallowed by the snow. He knelt, his enormous paws moving with a tender care as he swept the ice away. "Ho, ho, ho... and what has the night brought to my doorstep?" he whispered, lifting you into the cradle of his arms before turning to carry them into the warmth and light.
