A Christmas story for Penelope

Here is how a story called "Penelope and the Lighthouse Shadow" might begin:

The lighthouse lantern cast its long, steady beam across the frozen sea, illuminating jagged ice floes like broken pearls. Penelope, nestled in her window seat, watched the frosty breath of the waves. Suddenly, the steady rhythm of the light faltered, a flickering, stuttering gasp. A shadow, enormous and ungainly, briefly blotted out the stars, then scraped with a terrible groan against the very top of the lighthouse tower. A moment later, a small, polished wooden box tumbled past her window, landing with a soft thud on the snowy rocks below.

What happens next? Penelope must brave the icy night to retrieve a dropped item essential for Christmas delivery.
