this is the prologue of the new book. I hope you enjoy your first holiday. Also, this is the first holiday special in the story There'll be another one in here obviously for New Year's but we're gonna try this for Christmas first this is the Olympians's first Christmas, and in the human world, their first human holiday, I hope you enjoy.

it was Christmas Eve. I was so excited. I get to spend it with my new friends and family. It was a big deal all through the castle. Odette was excited too. It was a few days after our court after the coronation a day since I saw the bogeyman appear, but I'm not gonna let him get under my skin.

because it's it's a big day for friends, Christmas I'm not gonna I went to go and help Odette decorate. Most of the place was decorated before the coronation, but I helped to finish up, decorating and cleaning up because we were gonna have a big party. Well, we weren't gonna party on Christmas Eve. We spent more decorating and getting things ready for the family get-together and I had to teach them how Christmas worked OK I explained tomorrow is a big celebration.

it's a day for friends and family to get together. You have a lot to learn to become human or at least somewhat the equivalent of human I said I know you didn't have a lot of holidays except for Red Day in Alencia so that's what we're gonna do I'm gonna help with things cooking and things for tomorrow and opening presents from Santa Claus Santa. Yeah, that will be harder to explain. I said to everyone.

maybe we should start by watching movies tonight we'll watch all Christmas movies until it's time to go to bed. I said we'll have a country Christmas movie marathon tonight or a day marathon. How about it? You can learn about Christmas that way everyone cheered all right into the big room to watch movies.

reset together in the area and started watching our first movies after everything was decorated cooked and ready for tomorrow. All right let's watch movies.

We watched movie after movie it was amazing. Everyone was mesmerized by by how Christmas was done so what do you think of all these different movies and Christmas? I asked amazing we're gonna do one more thing tonight before we go to bed after watching all these movies what's that they asked Odette to read from the Bible, read the Christmas story, and what Christmas is all about besides friends and family and presents in Santa and giving it's better to give than receive but that's not the whole reason we celebrate Christmas is no I said to everyone except Dad of course.

we sat and watched movies till it was time to read from the story after they heard the Christmas story they were amazed about how it happened. Is it true? I know it was true. We'll go over this again at Easter I said, but yes, a baby was indeed born in a major by the Virgin Mary I said they were mesmerized, so what do you all think? Yes, they said we like this idea of Christmas. Let us celebrate.

I think I know the best thing we should do instead of just reading the Christmas story there's a candlelight service later maybe we should go to that yes, Odette said there is a church nearby. Let us go.

We watched the movies in the morning and then we read the story before and after that and now we were going to go to church taking my new friends and family to church was going to be an experimental experience for a lifetime, but maybe it'll change their lives we packed up and gone to church. It was a candlelight service.

The church was crowded, but it was fine. He found a seat and everyone sat down. It was the first time they heard the Christmas story from World read it to us, but they experienced it and all the music they even learned a lot of it even Scarlet loved the music, her feet tapped along to some of it, and even started singing along, even though she didn't know the words.

we held candles and prayed. The Olympians were excited. They felt an overwhelming spirit over them as they prayed a calming presence fell over them, all of the heroes in the group, received Jesus as their Lord and Savior that night at least everyone that came with us they weren't gonna be baptized yet.

next time on Sunday when we came or maybe even later on after church, we went back home and got ourselves ready for bed. Tomorrow is Christmas Day.

it'll be a big day and we're excited .

tomorrow
