Your reputation precedes you, Mr. Holmes! I do hope that this letter and gift finds you well in your current endeavors! It was quite difficult to reach you, and traversing through time and space takes quite a bit of Christmas magic, you see! But I still hope that you manage to enjoy the gift that I was able to give you!
Happy Holidays,
Santa Claus
[Sherlock will be given a set of stimulating detective novels written in a local, foreign language native only to Escordvia! A dictionary and book of grammar is included, along with a bag of chocolate chip cookies.
...his gift is also hidden as well. On the back of the letter is a list of clues and riddles for him to solve in order to find it. Or, rather, it will lead him to another list of clues followed by another, that will eventually lead him to his gift! They're probably not going to be all that hard for Sherlock to figure out, but they'll still be relatively challenging and thought out nonetheless!]
[ What is this? Sherlock spends his time studying the letter, and once he's satisfied he's gotten all the data he can from it, he begins to solve the list of clues and riddles. When he finds the gift, he's still puzzled by the whole thing because he's not super familiar with anyone who might celebrate Christmas and not Winterstide in general. Who could this have been?
Well, he will give the books a read and hope they are better than some of the detective books he had unfortunately read and heavily critique. Maybe there are further in clues inside.
Although, he raises his brows at the inclusion of a dictionary and grammar books.... Oh dear Lord. Does this book have words which are used in ways he doesn't understand?! Is he going to come across things like top, bottom, middle, left, right again? Or riding someone until they cried? Maybe he should read these for a reason beyond possible clues. ]
