Santa is already on the way with his crew!
Nikolaus (Santa) and Christ Child: Who brings the gifts?
December 6th is Saint Nicholas Day, the commemoration of Saint Nicholas of Myra, a bishop who lived in Asia Minor in the 4th century. Nicholas was known for his charity and dedication to the poor and needy. After his death, he was canonized, and his feast day was introduced in the Catholic Church.
In the Middle Ages, in some regions of Europe, there was a custom of distributing gifts on the evening of December 24th. However, this custom was not associated with St. Nicholas but with the Christ Child. The Christ Child was considered a heavenly messenger of Christmas and was regarded as the bearer of gifts.
In the 16th century, Protestants began to oppose the veneration of saints by the Catholic Church. This also affected St. Nicholas, who was venerated as a Catholic saint. Luther himself was a staunch opponent of saint worship, considering it a form of idolatry and a violation of the biblical command to turn only to God.
In his Christmas sermon of 1531, Luther criticized the veneration of St. Nicholas and urged Protestants to celebrate the Christ Child instead. He referred to the Christ Child as "an innocent child" and "a true child of God."
Luther's sermon had a significant impact on the Protestant tradition. In the following years, the custom of distributing gifts on the evening of December 24th became increasingly associated with the Christ Child. St. Nicholas was gradually pushed into the background.

I travel on the Adrestia with a crew of the Daughters of Artemis so that:
Deimos can get socialised - he's the semi-feral wolf cub that we found scavenging in a trash heap and will try to bite someone because he's too reactive, and the Daughters of Artemis are professionals at taming wild animals
Stentor can get socialised - you look me in the eye and tell me that this man has seen or spoken to any woman other than Kassandra in the past three years. sit down and learn some manners, my guy
Nikolaus can be a silver fox wolf - coming out of self imposed exile to an estranged wife, estranged step son and step daughter and then there's the adopted kid that never left him alone... yeah, I think the old man can still Get It, and I'm sure at least one of the ladies wants to try him too. make some new connections Nik :)
Myrrine can have gal pals that aren't pirates and also who won't betray her or use her for their own means - on GOD we gon GET you some friends, girl
and Kassandra is technically their boss, so. yeah.

Still recovering, so I simply drew three legends of my childhood. The ones usually forgotten or unknown. November is to St. Martin. For him to share his mantle with the poor, and for the children to build lanterns and join lanternparades in the cities, join around a bonfire and be later rewarded with sweets and fruit. The beginning of December then belongs to Nikolaus and Knecht Rubrecht. to hand out small gifts to children on the 6th. In some places it is only Nikolaus. In others it is only Rubrecht. But I prefer the doublepack. It simply must be nicer not to travel all alone, and instead with an old friend. We do not have Krampus in my part of germany.

Dec 06: Nikolaus
We don't really have Santa Clause in Germany, we have Nikolaus, who comes on the night of Dec 06 to fill your boots.
When I was little, our family would gather, we'd put out a big boot in front of our apartment door, and then wait inside. Then we'd hear a loud pounding on the door, like from a big, strong man. We'd run to the door to find our boots filled with a chocolate Nikolaus and a little sack for each child filled with goodies.
We were dirt poor (German poor, not American poor), so the goodies were a bit of chocolate, some tangerines and oranges, and different nuts, all still in their shells (even almonds).
It wasn't until my sister's kids were born that I was introduced to the concept of giving your kids actual toys (and quite expensive ones at that - think fitbit and such) for Nikolaus.
Now that we have our own child, I think I'd rather continue the tradition the way it was in my childhood. The things I remember about our Christmas are being together with grandparents and aunts, singing in the candle light, having a Christmas meal together, and feeling cosy and happy with my family. I can't remember a single toy (or book) I ever got as present.
