This is an amazing scene. This is the Christmas peace moment during the Great War

And today we’re all brothers, tonight we’re all friends
A moment of peace in a war that never ends
Today we’re all brothers, we drink and unite
Now Christmas has arrived and the snow turns the ground white
A Christmas on the frontline, we walk among our friends
We don’t think about tomorrow, the battle will commence
When we celebrated Christmas we thought about our friends
Those who never made it home when the battle had commenced

Sciencepone of Science!
Human psychology is baffling sometimes.
 
Why would they go back to killing eachother after this?
 
What stops them from throwing in the towel and just going home?
 
I mean, I know there’s military discipline and stuff, but it seems the commanders should just get with their troops and march back to their homes. It seems any sort of military discipline would be better than perpetuating what this war was.

Now I wanna see a whiny upper class officer twit telling his men to stop having fun and go back to killing followed by a cup full of scalding hot chocolate to the face

From what I’ve heard at least, the Germans are the one’s who started the truce by singing carols and bringing over the candle tree. I find it a nice idea that the Changelings (the German stand-ins) were the initiators here too.

I am glad to see that I am not the only one who has thought of this idea.

At first, I was surprised by changelings celebrating Hearth’s Warming, but it makes sense. Windigoes are basically their polar opposite. Why wouldn’t they celebrate a holiday about using togetherness and love to defeat such beings?

@Magic Man  
No problem at all! All props to the artist and to you for commissioning it.
 
I just love the fact that as soon as I looked at the thumbnail, I knew exactly what it was depicting (the history behind it etc.), hence I was already touched by it. Plus, I suppose it goes to show how striking the image is.

Motherfucker
@Magic Man  
I was referrin’ having anyone in the picture as changelings.
 
But relax, man. I was making an idle comment. Referring to them as mindless drones was embellishment. I don’t really care all that much.
