The Christmas Toyland was an area of the pocket dimension inside Madame Tarsa's Toybox. Like the other themed areas of the Toybox, it was accessible through a wooden door in the “Toymake's Labyrinth” and was inhabited by sentient toys created by Tarsa.
Description
As its name suggested, the Christmas Toymand was inhabited by Christmas-related toys, and decorated to match. The Toyland resembled an extremely large living room on Christmas Eve, with a gigantic Christmas tree in the centre, and, at the bottom, a town made of playthings. Enormous wrapped Christmas presents made up the “Giftbox Mountains” that surrounded said town, and there was also a Snapdragon Lake of boiling brandy where living raisins swam like penguins. Arganthone-056 speculated that the latter, and other elements of the Toyland, generated themselves magically to fit the theme of the place, without having been actively crafted by Madame Tarsa herself. (PROSE: The Time of the Toymaker)
History
Around the time of Christmas 2020, the oldest toy in the Labyrinth had taken up residence in the “old dollhouse at the top of the hill” in the Christmas Toyland. This led Juliet-178, Arganthone-056 and Jenny Everywhere, who had been advised by the Frog Mayor to seek her on the off-chance that she would have knowledge of use in restoring the frozen Madame Tarsa to life, to visit the Toyland. There, they boarded the Toyland Railway's train (taking advantage of a comically fortunate, but coincidental, reduction awarded to “copper automatons in the company of dimensionally irregular humans”) and made their way to the dollhouse after enjoying the scenic tour of the Giftbox Mountains. (PROSE: The Time of the Toymaker)
In December 2021, when CS-NA asked her for help in learning more about Christmas, Madame Tarsa briefly considered showing him the Toyland before remembering that its inhabitants were busy with their Ribbon Harvest Festival. (PROSE: The Winter Quests)
