Prologue

Krampus: The Christmas Terror

12/12/1010

?, Country of Germany, Alpine Region, European Continent.

It was a cold night in Germany, the whole town was at peace... Well almost everything. There was a family that was in constant discord and recent fights. The family did not have a last name to refer to, since if they mention the father's last name, the mother would get angry and if they mention the mother's last name, the father would get angry. The parents argued that they couldn't get the best pine trees in town because of some purchases that the mother delayed. The boy tried to calm them down, but what he did was infuriate the parents. He inadvertently revealed that her sister was in a relationship and when they found her, he received a strong reprimand. Annoyed at home they returned, but the villagers felt sorry for the children for the ordeal they had to live daily.

Things at home did not improve. The parents discussed food and everything else while the brothers went to their rooms. The sister, feeling betrayed, blamed her younger brother and she locked herself in her room. The boy did the same but all he could do was cry silently.

A little animal appears before him and promises him a wish or a miracle so that it can be granted. The boy wipes his tears and sees an old painting of his family. Those Christmases where no one fought for anything and he, his sister and his cousins played. Then the boy came up with a revolutionary idea. Maybe Santa Claus wouldn't listen to his requests, but Kyubey would.

With the contract signed, his soul leaves his body and is deposited in a green gem, just as he is given a small book with a green cover and green and red ribbons. Kyubey tried to explain to the boy about being a Puer Magi, but the boy paid no attention. He just wanted to see his wish fulfilled.

The night of December 24 arrived, and the discord between his family did not wait either.

Someone knocks on the door and the boy goes to receive his relatives. When he opens the door, his uncles, his maternal great-aunt and the 5 cousins go to visit the family. They all looked at each other hostilely. The tradition is that there should be 12 people sitting at the table on Christmas Eve. But those 12 people sitting at the table that should symbolize the 12 months of the year, the 12 days before Christmas, symbolized the disgust and discord of having come to Christmas dinner. The boy believed that dinner would improve everything as in the letter to Santa Claus that he wrote... But everything got worse.

The uncle criticized the son's father for working as a woodcutter instead of a hunter, the great-aunt and aunt criticized the mother's cooking as too refined, the cousins were very rude, and the sister held the brother so that he would not eat. a scene. They reclaimed things from the past and the truth of why so much discord in the family was revealed: The mother was from a rich family, but she married the father whom the girl's parents disapproved of and she lost her inheritance. They had the girl and seemed happy, but when they had the second child, the economic crisis took hold of the family and the child was born when the marriage collapsed, so the parents saw the child and his sister as hindrances that should not have been born. The boy, seeing that the cousins wanted to take the letter from him, the boy managed to save it and from one moment to another he exploded.

"I just wanted Christmas and the relationships you had to be like before, but forget it! I hate Christmas! I hate you!"

The boy tore up the letter, threw it into the fire where it turned to ashes, and went outside into the frozen night. Once he left, he knew that his family would never have any arrangement, that his family relationships would not be the same. He thought that his wish was in vain. His Soul Gem was hopelessly darkened as, having no Grief Seeds, he was unable to purify it in time. The last thought he had was those Christmas moments. Filled with joy and peace that he longed for, but that he will never get back. And that's how it came about...

Krampus: The Witch of Christmas

Yes, this is a gloomy story. Many Puer Magis and Puella Magis tried to confront this evil entity, but none could succeed, they all ended up perishing before this magical being. However, hope will shine a millennium later, just when 4 brave humans who will sign the contract with Kyubey will give them that push they will need, just to defeat Krampus, save Christmas and with it, all of Scandinavia.
