We hired a few dwarves to bring in a giant yule tree for our main room downstairs, and Leoffrith and I spent the evening decorating it. It's our second Yule together and I found a box of old decorations we brought from his old home, though we did not have any ornaments because we didn't have the room for a tree last year. It's also Devi's first Yule, and I can't wait to spoil her completely this year with a hundred presents. 

As it became clear the situation in the farmhouse, with the mob reforming out front and Nethrida’s sister Annedyl, not clearly under the control of Mans, calling the shots, the company beat a hasty retreat through the kitchen door.
