A Christmas story for Stella

Here is how a story called "Stella and the Guiding Light's Drift" might begin:

The houseboat gently rocked on the winter river, its fairy lights twinkling merrily against the frosted windowpanes. Outside, the river flowed with a quiet, shimmering current, reflecting the inky sky and a scattering of early stars. Stella, snug in her sleeping bag, was almost asleep when a soft thud, a little heavier than a snowdrift, echoed from the roof. She peeked out her window and saw nothing. But a few minutes later, a tiny, glowing golden orb rolled past her window on the deck, pulsating with a gentle warmth. It looked like a miniature sun, no bigger than a marble, and left a faint, shimmering trail.

What happens next? Stella soon discovers that this radiant orb is a critical navigational component for a very important Christmas journey, now adrift in the river's current.
