Another delivery made, another family happy. It was all in a day's work for the toymaker brothers. Even if this delivery had been a bit further than what was convenient, it was all worth it in the end, especially since this out-of-the-way town had not a single toymaker to speak of. As they trudged back through the snow, fresh flakes began to fall, adding to the already-deep snow. With how short the brothers were—barely over two feet tall—it was even more difficult with the stuff coming all the way up to their chests. "I sure hope we can get home before dark," Oswald said, following the trail they had made through the snow on the way here.
