Seems there are two new NPCs talking about procedures for a party in Kamadan, just west of Bendah and Grandfather Kringle, behind Mahk's family.

Are James and Sofie hinting at something yet to come, or are they just engaged in idle background chatter?

Edit: Two others on the opposite side of town as well, Alki and Tuhnan.

In the previous Wintersday event's times there were pretty awesome free feature updates added, like Observer Mode (2005) or Party Search, Reconnect, Free Elonian Treasures, Festival Hat NPC (2006). This year we got only a toggle for name tag fading (yay), but can we expect something more? Some surprises? Speculations start here...

This is why I love wintersday. There is always something new we can expect. I'm hoping it's worth all this anticipation.
