DISASTER has struck! Metzen the Reindeer has been kidnapped!
Metzen is one of Great-father Winter's eight reindeer - and property of Smokywood Pastures. We've received not one but TWO ransom letters from groups claiming to have Metzen. With the holiday season well under way, we're strapped to the coin box here! Please - find Metzen and return him to us!
Check out the ransom letters for clues, and sprinkle this reindeer dust on him - it will free him from any of his bonds!
Please, hurry!
