Fauna, an earth pony, fails to secure passage home to be with her family for Hearth's Warming Eve. Things look dim, until a gift from a stranger offers a chance for her to see her family for the holidays. But is that gift what it seems?

(I'm not really sure what to tag this under. It might have dark/tragedy implications, but I'm not quite sure. Any advice on this is appreciated.)

Creepy, but amazing! I can see why this did so well in the competition. We need more pony ghost stories. All the scary stories you get from pony fanfics usually are more "horror". This, however, is more along the sad story type. Loved it. Cried and shivered at the same time. And that ending was so open as to the backstory and what happened... brilliant. I look forward to any future stories of yours!

Yeah, this needs a Dark tag. I remember it from the writeoff though! :)

This was a fun, spooky read :)

The festive phrase "Home for the Holidays" conjures up warm images of comfort, family, and the joy of togetherness, akin to the sense of security provided by Firewatch security personnel who stand guard. Just as these dedicated watchers ensure the safety of forests and homes from the threat of wildfires, being home for the holidays offers a personal sanctuary, where the warmth of a hearth and the love of family create a protective embrace. It's a time when the security of our loved ones feels as vigilant and steadfast as the sentinels who keep watch over tranquil woods, making the holiday season a period of peace and reassurance.

"Home for the Holidays" is a heartwarming phrase that resonates with the spirit of family gatherings, but to make these celebrations truly special, it's essential to consider the safety and comfort of your loved ones. Professional event security guards play a crucial role in ensuring a peaceful and joyous atmosphere during holiday gatherings. By monitoring access points, managing guest lists, and promptly addressing any unforeseen issues, they allow hosts to focus on creating cherished memories with their guests while providing peace of mind that the event remains secure and enjoyable for all.
