Jack Flap says "maybe she WAS A Yule Angel"

He hugs the ornament close.

the Mountain returns "Son, I'm sorry ,Wayfare isn't my strong suit and I just won't be able to get it done. I tried to tap into the Yulestar..and it ate it" He sighs

He looks up at the Mountain, and gives him a solemn nod. "I'm sorry. Next time, I'll go on a Proper Quest and get real 'ponents and it will work better. It's not your fault, Mountain." And indeed, the pooka doesn't look dismayed. Rather, his tail wags. "I bet it was the Scotch, wasn't it. If I had a full bottle, then you could have worked all SORTS of magic."

"Did it eat it all up? The whole sheboozle? "

"Woosh. Odd magics tonight. Look, I do have something for you..." And he pulls out a snowglobe "Find some snow from some place, touch it against this, and spend some glamour, and that is the area the snow globe will show"

"Oooooh." He accepts it in one hand carefully, holding the other ornament behind his back in the other hand. "Can you reset it for a fresh picture someday?"

"Yes. the last ssnow that touches it with a bit of glamour resets it to the new location" he says

"oh, and for your friend." He gestures and hands some seeds

"Wowsers. How many allowances do I owe you?" Eyes wide.

"Seeds that grow in WINTER?" Jack Flap gasps

"They do. Merry Yule." The Mountain says "And no allowences owed. Wish I could give you your wish"

"Thank you, sir. It's all. it's good" Jack Flap says "We gotta get back home though. RIGHT Connor?"

"Oh. Yes! Right" He starts for a hug, then stops and smiles up at the Mountain. "I owe you a hug when I'm not holding orneries!" And he grins and takes off for the trod along with Jack!

And off they go, the Mountain looks at the golden road "Something... something gonna be left that lasts out of all this."
