Merry Christmas! And folklore for you!

What I would really like to do is post one of the two (short) stories that I have not had time to write more than a few pages (handwritten) of.  Instead, I will give you the background folklore for the (hopefully) funny one.

There is a legend that on midnight of Christmas Eve, beasts are given the gift of speech.

To praise the birth of Christ.

Imagine what they really say.

(Tanya Huff used this briefly in the Summoning series.)
