As a child in Wales, Christmas used to be William Herondale's favorite time of year. Since he had moved to the London Institute, his Christmases had turned into true Greek comedies. In his first year, he'd set fire to a curtain—accidentally, it's worth noting—. In the second year, there had been the mess with Tatiana and Gabriel Lightwood.
