Hello!
Last episode Crister shared that Yule was his favorite festival. I, too, like Yule the best out of the festivals. This year I worked out a circuit to do the 10 quests for the daily that gets everything done in just under 20 minutes.
Question for Crister, do you have a particular routine that you follow in Winter-home to do the quests? And if so, have you incorporated the passed-out-in-his-own-filth hobbit into said routine?
