Dionne was in the Great Hall carving pumpkins into jack o lanterns for the Samhaim feast. She had already finished five and was putting the final touches on the last one when Dulcina came in carrying the candles to put inside them.

Dionne stood back and looked at her masterpiece and smiled. “There! It’s perfect.”

Dulcina looked at the pumpkin and asked. “Why did you carve the pumpkin like that? It doesn’t look scary at all. Jack o lanterns are supposed to be scary.”

“I just wanted to make one that was happy.” Dionne said with a smile. “He’s just glad to be included.”

“Well he’s gonna look out of place. I like this one with the fangs. It looks like Lady Starr.”

“Yeah I thought a vampire thing would be fun on a pumpkin.” Dionne said. “This one looks like Endora when she first gets up.”   

They both giggled.

Crown Princess Cara came in and the two stop their giggles and curtsied.

“Well done, Dionne. You are very artistic. These will be perfect for the feast. Put the candles in but don’t light them. We shall wait for the feast for that.” Crown Princess Cara said. “Don’t forget to clear up the mess and take the seeds to cook.” 

“Yes Your Highness.” Dionne said.

“I like that one.” Crown Princess Cara pointed to the happy one. “He seems like he is happy to see the ancestors. Very well done.”

“Thank you Your Highness.” Dionne smiled.

“Oh and you’re right that one does look like my daughter first thing in the morning.” Crown Princess Cara said as she left the room.

The two faeries looked at each other and burst out in giggles.
