The Christmas Gnomes had long lived peacefully in [[Yonderre|East Gothica]] until the [[Conquest of Joanusterra]] in the mid- to late fifteenth century when the Oja (a species of vampire-esque beings) wandered into Gothica amidst the chaos of the Crusade. It is never explicitly stated where they come from, but it is alluded to being [[Primo Kino#Vespia|Vespia]]. The narrator ([[Jean-Yves Forvert]]) explains that the Christmas Gnomes and Ojas fought a war in secret so as not to upset the humans, a war which the Christmas Gnomes lost in the end and were exiled to [[Australis]] where they lived ever since. Unfortunately, the Christmas Gnomes forgot the key to the music box whose music keeps Santa Claus alive. Fast forward to present day when Santa Claus' music box is about to cease playing; Santa sends out three elite Gnomes: Pfeiffer ([[Jean-Yves Forvert]]), Hausser [[Adam le Bonc]] and Boudin [[Giles de Sillé]]. The three are sent out with the "Big Book" which holds the answer to every question. Their task is to retrieve the music box key, which was forgotten in a now long abandoned lair in western Yonderre. | The Christmas Gnomes had long lived peacefully in [[Yonderre|East Gothica]] until the [[Conquest of Joanusterra]] in the mid- to late fifteenth century when the Oja (a species of vampire-esque beings) wandered into Gothica amidst the chaos of the Crusade.

Simultaneously, an Oja (also played by [[Adam le Bonc]]) travels to the same region, having heard of the Gnomes' plans. The Oja have, since the Gnome-Oja war, changed their shape such that they now perfectly resemble humans, except their true form is still revealed when ingesting strong alcoholic drinks. Benno comes to the farmhouse of Oskar Hügel (again played by [[Jean-Yver Forvert]]) and Gertrud Hügel (also played by [[Giles de Sillé]] in drag), where the Oja presents himself as travelling salesman "Benno" and explains that his car has broken down further down the road, ostensibly due to sabotage by the "Ænglish Mafia". The Hügels let Benno in and allow him to sleep on the couch for the night so he may go out the following day and fix his car. Meanwhile, the three Christmas Gnomes have flown in a biplane from [[Australis]] to [[Yonderre]]. The pilot, Boudin, crashes upon landing, bending the propeller beyond use. Dissatisfied with Boudin's performance, the three make their way to the secret lair where they find the key for Santa Claus' music box. However, without a propeller, the three cannot return to [[Australis]], and so must wait while Boudin cuts a new propeller from timber. | Simultaneously, an Oja (also played by [[Adam le Bonc]]) travels to the same region, having heard of the Gnomes' plans.
