❄️ [Christmas Eve ]


On December 24th...

A package is left on the edge of Ed's bed.

It's an elegant and clearly professionally gift-wrapped package, as well as three mézeskalács individually wrapped in see-through cellophane and tied off with a black and white bow to match the rest of the wrapping design.

Unwrapping the gift reveals a puzzle, which Ed will no doubt make short work of deciphering.

Inside the puzzle, folded in between a slip of deep emerald green velvet, is a pin.

Beneath the pin is a black paper scroll tied with green string. The writing is in Oswald's own hand, in gold ink:

I bare pearls upon green,

but within the ocean won't be seen

I give nothing to you,

but good luck when joining two

What am I?

Below is small business card to a local boutique with an invitation to an afternoon private suit fitting for two.

Separately, in a smaller black envelope, also handwritten and handled, is a small note written on black paper:

This note may be exchanged for one absolute truth to any question asked by Edward Nygma, about any topic, whenever he wishes to use it.

It's signed at the bottom with Oswald's signature.
