This will be the first Christmas I celebrate.

Night Island?

And in what spirit will you celebrate?

The home I built for myself and for Daniel.

I celebrate because I want to learn more about my friends. This seems like such an important tradition for them. I've never had such things.

What was it like?

Without faith, but with an open heart, then.

Warm, surrounded by warm, black waters, but sparkling like a diamond still holding the sun's light. The lights of the Night Island do not turn off until the sun makes them redundant.

There are people, so many people who come and who go, conducting their own business in the shops and galleries that I have had built there with my home a silent center. When I want peace, I have peace. When I want to watch people living their lives, I am surrounded.

It is the home I have created for this time of my life.

I find it odd to have faith in a nebulous being that can't be seen or heard, but I'm happy to be spending the holiday with Artemis and Holly.

It sounds beautiful.

I have sought that which cannot be seen or heard and I have found and lost my faith over the years. Having it is a warmer feeling.

It is as beautiful as I could make it.

Do you think you could find your faith again?

Is there something you'd like for the holiday, Armand?

No, but you are kind to ask.

Please tell me you're at least coming to the music festival on the 24th?

I would not miss the gifted musicians of the City and their art though I can attend only after sunset.

I'll be sure to play my best, then.

I will look forward to it.
