A Christmas story for Nolan

Here is how a story called "Nolan and the Golden Gear" might begin:

Nolan’s cabin in the pines smelled of woodsmoke and crisp, winter air. He was whittling a small reindeer from a fallen branch, the silence of the forest a comforting presence. Suddenly, a strange whirring sound, like a thousand tiny gears turning, filled the air, growing louder, closer. It wasn't the wind, nor any creature he knew. Nolan peered out the window. High above the tallest pines, a swirling vortex of shimmering, mechanical snowflakes was descending. From its center, something small and metallic detached itself, spiraling gracefully downwards before landing with a soft 'clink' in the snow right outside his door – a tiny, intricate golden gear.

What happens next? Nolan soon learns this mysterious gear is the missing piece of a vital Christmas Eve mechanism.
