21: In The Bleak Midwinter
Today is the winter solstice.
Someone has to go into the dark place and make sure the sun rises on Midwinter. Might as well be the PCs.
In a setting with a high enough Weird Level this can be literal. But even in a setting as weird as Discworld it doesn’t have to be.
THE SUN WOULD NOT HAVE RISEN.
“Really? Then what would have happened, pray?”
A MERE BALL OF FLAMING GAS WOULD HAVE ILLUMINATED THE WORLD.
They walked in silence for a moment.
Terry Pratchett, Hogfather
