Summary
Somewhere down the street, there was a sound of music. Carols and christmas songs were being played while people sang and danced along. The boy hated it. They didn't need another reminder of what they have lost. Because once he had a lively family. He had a roof over his head and all the food he could dream of. The memories of past holidays filled their head — the red gift paper, smell of cinnamon and the beautiful, warm fireplace.

It's Christmas. Snow is falling, people are spending time with their families and getting presents. It's truly the most wonderful time of the year.
Xander absolutely hates the day.

Summary
The pages were filled with neat handwriting—his own, he realized—but it was written in a language they didn’t understand. Strange symbols and intricate diagrams covered the pages, charts of stars and seas that made no sense to him. The only thing familiar was a sketch of a compass rose on the first page, with a single word beneath it: Orion.
"Orion," he murmured aloud, the word foreign on his tongue yet oddly comforting. Was it a name? A destination?
