[Ciel's sitting, like he always is, this time in a fancy chair in the sitting room. There's a small glass of wine in hand as he speaks.]Tomorrow is All Hallow's Eve, as I'm certain everyone is more than well aware, and while most will be 'Trick or Treating', many are unaware of the origins of the tradition. Souling is what the current day practice

Soul cake?

voice;

[littlest_lord]

It's a small round cake which is traditionally made for All Saints Day or All Souls' Day to celebrate the dead. The cakes were given out to soulers who would go from door to door on Hallowmas singing and saying prayers for the dead. Each cake that's eaten would represent a soul being freed from Purgatory.

They're not incredibly sweet, but they're good.

['Not sweet'?]

I see. That is a pity, but I suppose symbolism is more important than taste.

[littlest_lord]

They certainly don't taste bad. They're nice, really.

Would you like to try one, Miss Von Karma?

At the Funtom Toy & Sweet shop.

Ah. I may just have to pass by some time soon, in that case.

I hope you'll enjoy them then, if you do.
