After all nine gifts have been made, they must be "sacrificed" to the forge. Original writeup courtesy of Xanthe Ravenwolf

Place all of your finely crafted nine gifts (Demi-Sec Champagne, Mistletoe Cutting Sickle, Golden Idol of Tunare, Blessed Fishing Rod (Expendable), Star Ruby Encrusted Stein, Ceremonial Solstice Robe, Lotus Pie, Misty Thicket Picnic, Lucky Cabbage) into a Forge (any normal, non-cultural forge), and hit combine (fear not, it is a no-fail combine). The faithful (or is that crazed, by this point in your questing?) shall recieve:
