Outside one December night, the stars are shining and everything is quiet.  Even most animals have gone to bed.  Two little fellows are wading in the snow on their way back home. They have been on a visit that lasted much longer than intended.

Heffanutt is scared of the dark, his imagination is running wild seeing strange creatures in the darkness around him.  He keeps as close to The Ant King as possible. The Ant King, on the other hand, is enjoying the walk in a winter wonderland this 5th December.
