A Field Guide to Winterholm

"Queen Mistletoe Winterholm and her partner Poinsettia rule the frigid and dangerous, snowblasted lands of the North. Their queendom is known as The Realm of Winterholm. Ruling from the capitol of Realm’s Retreat, these nearly immortal mice reign with joy and cheer. Sharing land with the denizens of the North Pole has its challenges but also its reward. The ‘ole Gift Giver in Red and his Elves don’t mind the mice and even share some holiday treats... The challenges faced by the mice are great, but that is what is expected in a huge and freezing world: It's dangerous! And up here it is winter all the time!"
