although I'm a fan of violence....
I agree that violence alone doesn't make a piece great. Without a story violence can't carry a show through more than five episodes, in the end a good story always wins.
Anyways I loved this submission, small bald snow pixies are so cute lol. The entire setting was amazing, from the consistently falling snow to the smallest details like the key being hanged and the snow rumbling when the door slammed. Though the art on the characters weren't the best I've seen, it well represents the kind of easy-going fairytale storyline of this flash. A very strong realistic character design goes better with a more dark or violent story. I do hope you make it to the top 50 on the portal, because I can say for certain this beats at least half the submissions currently on the top 50
