next;

Due to the harsh clima on this continent, villages or towns can be cut off the rest of the world for several weeks sometimes, so most of them tend to be rather independent.\"";

next;
mes "\"This is of course nonsense, Santa would never do that and it's more that the person accusing him could be suspected to act this way. The other Sages were on Santa's side and I fear this harsh rejection caused a lot of hurt feelings.\"";
next;
mes "\"Personally I think that he was jealous about Santa's influence and supremacy position since quite a while. However, he took this as a reason to leave the Sages and based on our insights it seems he decided to work against the Sages.";
