On the twelfth day of Christmas, an author gave to me,

Twelve freaks a-fighting,

Eleven hobos uniting,

Ten dragons snorting,

Nine humans mobbing,

Eight old friends a-waiting,

Seven mucus balls disgusting,

Six cave spiders frightening

Five pointless trials,

Four wild wolves,

Three curving tunnels

Two of Evra's Scales,

And a deadly spider on the loose and freeeeeee!

MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR!
