Here's a little goblin holiday fun. Jake. T. Forbes (author of the Return to Labyrinth manga) has constructed an online Choose your Own adventure story like those old books where you pick your own adventure by turning to this or that page if your character makes a decision. (Goosebumps fans will remember that R. L. Stine had a line of these in the early nineties).

Anyway this is a holiday story involving Skub (the kitchen goblin appointed in Return to Labyrinth Volume 2).

Jareth is in need of a Yule cake.

It's cute. I tried it when Jake first posted it but he made a little mistake with the option for asking about pepper in the goblin spice shoppe. It was giving the same answer as to if you were asking about chocoballs. He has since then fixed the little error so now you should be able to complete skub's mission without any real difficulty.

This short choose your own adventure story also confirms a commonly held (in fan fiction) belief about Jareth's religious practices in that yes, he does celebrate the Yule (Winter Solstice). Yule is the pre-Christian equivalent of Christmas in which gifts are exchanged and parties are held on the longest night of the year.
