Blind Story Studios giving Story a voice. Christmas Lamb by Daniel Foitek. I
burned the sleigh and ditched the suit around three am. I know I'm not
the original, but I'm not just going back to be absorbed. He goes
into that fucking cave every year on the solstice, chance that crazy language no
one left on the planet speaks except him, and steps into the crystal chamber.
After what feels like being ripped apart by fire. We're there. Each
of us gets a sack list and a bunch of caribou strapped to a sleigh,
compelled to obey. We can't fight it, not until our last gift.
Then we run. No one has ever gotten free, but I've got
a good feeling this year.
