Lotto VI
Lotto VI was the sixth incarnation of Lotto, and appeared as a jolly old man who walked with a cane. He wore a blue-grey trench coat and purple scarf, and traveled through time and space with his companion, Mae. He had no heart, and claimed to have had to cut his "one and only heart"
Finding himself unable to recall his earliest lives, he went in search of knowledge, ending up at the Plume Coteries' Library with Mae after an Old Man who dwelled at the edge of the universe told them to look for The Book of Christmas. They find the book and meet Viv-Gabriel Arch'ikarios, whom they befriended. When they opened the Book, baby Jesus Christ appeared, and the three travelled back to the First Christmas in order to return the baby. Upon their return to the Library, they encountered a group of Christmas Elves who threw the Book of Christmas into their Claus-Rosen Bridge. Auteur, who had tricked Lotto into going to the library by exerting mental control over the Old Man, and authored the events of the story (with Jesus, and then with the Elves), now had control over every Christmas there had ever been. Lotto, determined to save Christmas from Auteur, found Mary Christmas, who takes the trio to Christmasland on the Mother Christmas Sled. After Mae shoved Santa Claus into the Bridge, Mary shoved Lotto, Mae, and Gabriel into the Bridge too. The three end up in Valhalla, and Lotto finds that he is able to move without his cane for the first time in months as his leg didn't hurt as much as usual. Lotto said he had grown up with the Viking myths, and felt honoured to meet Odin. This land wa sn't entirely real, of course, so they dve to leave, but not before Lotto and Mae invidte Gabriel to travel with them, which Gabriel acceedts.
