Sleighed tells the story of Sinter Ni'klas - the real Santa Claus - and his wife Ti'elle, rulers of the elfish kingdom of Erethielle. Their world and ours are magically connected; Erethielle produces the magic that Earth needs to survive, and Earth consumes Erethielle's excess magic that would otherwise burn it to a crisp. Every Christmas Eve, the barrier between the two worlds grows thin enough for Sinter to deliver the magic that the Earth needs to sustain its existence and, in the process, he prevents the destruction of both worlds. Thus, the fate of the two worlds depends on Sinter's yearly trip.
However, this year there is a problem. Factions within the populace are protesting the continued delivery of such massive quantities of magic to the Earth, demanding that it remain in Erethielle. With less than one week until Christmas Eve, the magic intended for Earth, which Sinter has been faithfully collecting all year, is stolen, imperiling his visit. While Sinter pursues the thieves outside the kingdom- encountering hostile armies, snow monsters, trolls, traitors, and angry unicorns- Ti'elle is attacked and kidnapped as part of a plot against the crown.
Join the real Santa and Mrs. Claus on a fantasy adventure completely devoid of singing, vertically challenged elves, green felt, pointy hats, and every other cutesy thing erroneously attributed to the Man in Red.
