"You've got your thinking cap on today, Ariana. Well done! I think that is exactly how Mr. Claus uses his house elves." Quote:

If we want to be REAL conspiracy theorists, we could say that there IS no Pere Noel and the elves are responsible for all of it. Or as to why this is going on for so long, if Pere Noel is or was mortal, he might have left standing orders for the elves to continue his work after his death. This is all supposition, though, it still proposes an interesting theory, doesn't it Professor?" Faye had let her inquiring mind run away with her again, but the more she thought about it, the more she found the theory fascinating. Lainey laughed. "Oh dear, Faye. I may have rubbed off too much on you. That's an excellent theory! Completely possible too..." Lainey rubbed her chin in thought again, pausing to really think about it. Quote:

So the man might be using him for his magic. Maybe to make the toys make sounds and make them faster." She stopped talking and thought of the last question.
"He can't be stopped. How can you stop a man with such power of sorcery and also have the elves magic too?" Licking her lips, she put her quill down. "Exactly, Eternal. Exactly. He can't be stopped. Or, I've yet to come up with a way to stop him." Quote:

He knows that house elves are bound to their master, and thus he can get away with this tyranny by using the elves to help with the protection charms around the North Pole so that he cannot ever be defeated. The milk and cookies that he takes from the people's homes, he makes sure to share with the elves so that they don't dare squabble about him."
"Ah. You've summed it up so nicely, Amelia. Great work! I think you've got it exactly perfect - so 10 points to Hufflepuff! And 5 for everyone else that answered!"
"Ole Santa use his elves for his own protection, his own success, and for his own happiness. House elf magic is far beyond us - so imagine a whole army of elves devoted to him? He's untouchable!"
Lainey shook her head and again started to pace. "I'm glad you brought up the milk and cookies. We'll get to that in a second. I want us to now discuss something that baffles me a little. What do you all think about the eight flying reindeer? Reindeer? Do you think it could be something else? Or what?"
