The heads of the families in the village meet to decide his future and, as life in the arctic is difficult, it is decided that as no one family could care for him permanently, they would raise him communally, with each family taking him for one year and then moving him on to the next.

It becomes a tradition from then, with Nikolas never forgets the children of those families that received him each year.
