Every year around Hearth's Warming eve, Lyra the unicorn dreams about a mysterious figure in a red suit, and every year she goes alone to the place in her dreams, waiting for the stranger to come along. And every year, he's never once been there to greet her.

Will this Hearth's Warming Eve be different than the previous ones, the year her dreams literally come true? Or will she be left alone in the snow once more?
