A Christmas-themed illustration featuring a pair of mice (an imaginary species I created called Holly Mice) with floating antlers on their heads. They have holly leaves and berries growing on their backs. They are positioned around a softly glowing snowflake, with their taiks encircling it.
Season's greetings, dearest goblinfam! Wishing all of you a wonderful holiday season surrounded by love and warmth. ✨️
Have a pair of Holly Mice to celebrate the day! Affectionately known as "duff* reindeer" or "dufflings", Holly Mice emerge from their burrows and nests in the middle of winter sporting backs of holly and antlers, which serve as nutrition (holly berries) and protection respectively. During the rest of the year, they are virtually indistinguishable from other woodland mice.
While they usually stay far away from human settlements, Holly Mice have begun to find their way into homes during Christmas, where they are seen as a symbol of good luck and merry tidings.
So leave some fruits and nuts out today. You never know when a Holly Mouse (or two!) might appear 💖🎄🐭
*duff= the forest floor

Have some Holly Mice to celebrate the season! Lore in the next image! 💖🎄🐭
