“You already have,” he said with a big smile. “You already have.”

The man was turning to leave when Keysa asked, “Who are you?”

The man turned, pointing to the black letters scrawled on his jacket. “You can call me Jasper,” he said, then pulled his jacket tighter and walked off.

“Another success,” a booming voice said from above.

Jasper nodded. “My heart swells with each one.”

“And the bells ring even louder,” the deep voice said. “It’s good work you’re doing, Jasper, very good work.”

“’Tis the season,” was Jasper’s happy reply.
