Don't worry brother, like I said before, the most important thing is for you to rest and let your body heal, we'll all be here once you get better. As for Mariah, it's no problem to bot her, so she will be waiting for you once you get back.
Hmmm I wonder what would happen if Satharn had to be santa claws for a hive world? Think he could deliver *Present* and *punishments* to a hive world all in a day with help from side kicks?
I ... just ... Part of me can't even Part of me is imagining little bats in Christmas hats helping Satharn give gifts to good children. What happens to the naughty children is probably best left to the imagination and tales of the Night Haunter. In fact ... bet there are only good children!
Would Kombuse be the fire happy elf helping in the background? Reading a badly sketched instruction set. "step one, pick up child. step two, put child in furnace." Looks at kid, looks at furnace, then back to instructions. "Are you sure these are right Satharn?"
"I think first we have to work out who's been good all year." *pause* "Wait, if I'm the one judging the guilty, why is it me who has to climb down chimneys?"
*Malark is in the background sitting in a cushy chair reading a book* "Because you are a Nightlord Satharn, you're the best at sneaking into things."
"It's just that the last time I tried sneaking into someone's house and shouting "HAPPY SANGUINALA!" everyone screamed and ran in terror. Didn't even stay for the presents."
*Tyresius is over to the right, mixing more disea-I mean, "Gifts"* "Oh, that's nothing Satharn! When the little boys and girls open their gifts, they'll just drop dead from joy!"
"Tyresius if any of those gifts harm the children I'll throw soap at you until you're as a clean as a Lord of Change's laboratory." *licks talon and turns the page in his book*
