Seven; [voice]

Excuse me.

[The voice is somewhat quiet, apologetic and soft-spoken. That should be the first sign he's changed; that is not a normal tone of voice for this man to take. It had happened once before, though not for very long, and it ended up leaving him in an even worse temper than he had previously. It seems the gods decided to try again and to perhaps not ruin the holiday season for anyone who tries to deal with him on a regular basis.]

I apologize for the disturbance, but I wish to request some information. In an...effort to better understand the people of this land.

[An awkward pause, as if something just occured to him.] Of course, you are under no obligation to answer me; please don't feel as if you must.

I have seen people here mention certain festivals and holidays taking place around the winter season. Considering the...recent decorations, they seem to be commonplace no matter the other differences in a person's homeland.

We have similar myths and legends where I come from, though I had not taken part in any sort of celebration. [Silvites are too clinical to celebrate something as frivolous as winter solstice, but that's neither here nor there.]

If you should consent to answer, then please tell me; what do you celebrate in your land? Is there any particular history associated with it?

It could be anything; not...just winter festivals. I merely want a basis for comparison.

[He says that with an air of finality. There's a bodily shift and a far-away sigh as it goes silent, all before it abruptly turns back on and another statement is added in a hurried sort of breathlessness, as if he just remembered to add something important.]

Thank you. For your time, I mean. I know you are not required to listen to me.

[And done.]
