Dear Father Christmas,
I’m afraid I’m not quite sure how to begin this letter. I’ve never written you before, but I feel I ought to do so today, so I hope you’ll accept my apologies for a previous lack of correspondence on my part. I don't think you've ever paid visit to Daventry before, but I'm sure we'd all like it very much if you did, if you'd like to consider a trip there this year. In any case, it seems impolite to simply jump into a list of requests without any sort of proper introduction, but as I’m sure you’re quite busy managing all the lists you must receive each year, and the wishes entailed therein, I suppose it’s only practical to keep things simple.
This Christmas, I would like to please wish for:
Dear Father Christmas,
I’m afraid I’m not quite sure how to begin this letter.

In any case, it seems impolite to simply jump into a list of requests without any sort of proper introduction, but as I’m sure you’re quite busy managing all the lists you must receive each year, and the wishes entailed therein, I suppose it’s only practical to keep things simple.
This Christmas, I would like to please wish for:
--Most important, I think, would be good health and safety for all my friends and family. Especially for Daddy. I hope it’s true that no one back home will notice how long I’ve been gone, because magic fruit or not, I don’t know if he could bear losing another child so soon after regaining one. So if it happens that you visit Daventry this year, please especially look after him, and Mother and Alexander too.
--Please also bring happiness and security to the land of Tamir, and all who reside there.I'm sure we both know who I mean.
--If it’s not too much trouble, could you also please reason with the deities and put an end to the humiliating curses? Some of them are more tolerable than others, but the ones that change a person’s thoughts are simply horrible.
--Please bring Sam something nice this year. I don't mind if some of my other wishes have to go by the wayside in order to fill this one. It's enough if he's happy.
--Please bring me something suitable for a girl residing in this City. Things here aren't much like Daventry and I'd like very much to try to--well, to fit in a little better, I suppose. But I think you would know best about what sort of thing that should be. Or at least better than me, anyway.
--A prince would be rather nice. Someone like me.
--Please bring--oh, it's a silly wish, I don't know where I'd even keep him--would it be too much to ask for my horse? I miss riding and while I'm sure the horses here are very nice, it would never quite be the same as my own.
--Pink roses.
