Although it's late December, [[Juliet-178]] and [[Pythagoras-858]] are called by the [[Supreme Quaestor]] to his office on the top floor of the [[C.I.I. Headquarters]], where the Quaestor wordlessly hands Pythagoras a piece of paper describing an assigment, prompting him to whisk Juliet off to his [[Fog Ship]] and from there to a snowy forest in [[Finland]]. As they traipse through the snow, eventually making their way to a clearing with a stone in the centre, Pythe explains to Juliet that they are set to meet [[Sigyn|a goddess of the Norse pantheon]] to discuss a bargain between her and the Crew, to acquire an item which she is auctioning off and which the Crew are quite anxious that some of its enemies (like the [[Collective of the Retconning Crocodiles]]) ''not'' get their hands on. Juliet is needed because it is likely the goddess will send the Cupids on a mythical quest to prove their worth. Pythe eventually realises that the stone he's been sitting on is in fact a [[Rune]] [[Rune Stone|Stone]]. | Although it's late December, [[Juliet-178]] and [[Pythagoras-858]] are called by the [[Supreme Quaestor]] to his office on the top floor of the [[C.I.I.

''to | [[CS-NA]], or “Cesse”, a ship-building robot whom the [[Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids]] took in a long time ago, reflects on the patterns of the lives of the [[Clockwork Cherub]]s and events in the [[Cupid Homeworld]]. He notes a trend of the Cupids' adventures having gotten higher-scale and more dangerous over the last few years. Fearing that this will impact their holidays despite [[Celebration-665]]'s best efforts, he resolves to “Save [[Christmas]]” as thanks for how kind the Cupids have always been to him. | ||
