In the evening, lan changed his clothes and said he wanted to take Maja out for a stroll.

Before Maja could even rise, she heard someone knocking at the living room door. She opened it to find Beck, who was standing

there with a grin on his face and clutching a massive box in his arms.

"Maja, it's a Christmas’ gift from Dad. I don't even know what it is. Let's open it and see."

Augus had recently held a press conference, visibly pushing through despite his poor health. He needed stto recover, but

remembering that Christmas' Eve in Windhelm was around the corner, he had someone bring over the gift he had prepared well in

advance.

Now Maja was not in a hurry to go out. She settled down beside the box and carefully snipped a small opening with scissors.

The box revealed a sparkling figurine, standing half a meter tall, crafted entirely of diamonds, each one a fortune in its own right.

Beck wrinkled his nose after one glance.

"Tacky. I've never seen such a tacky gift in my life."

The figurine wasn't of Maja, but rather a cherubic baby, reminiscent of the vintage Christmas’ posters that used to adorn the walls.

The gems shone brilliantly, even dazzling Maja's eyes the moment the box was opened. The rubies that made up the baby's

cheeks were a recent acquisition from an auction, and the organizers would surely be livid to see such exquisite gems used in such

a kitschy manner.

Maja looked at the gem-made trinket and was at a loss for words.

She suddenly felt that maybe the aesthetic of the wealthy was just like that.
