Story:
Fazey, an expert gate builder, returns home after sending his letter. He meets Amilpha, one of his (if not the only) acquaintances, who convinces him that Santa Claus is evil and wants to steal all of his sweets.
And so they start this adventure in his home to seal off every route with gates, but they meet a bitter surprise...

A simpleton boy, expert in building doors and gates. Lives in a house that he keeps expanding day after day, to have more space to build even more gates.

Santa Claus?
