Their meal was illuminated by torches, which Gwen found were utterly without fire. What the children called torches were really just small platforms on tall, wooden poles. The reason they radiated light was because fairies had flown up to them to waltz and glow on the tiny dance floors.

About This Quote

In this quote from Anne Shirley, all of the children can see how the fairies have been able to make their world the way they want it to be. Their world is a magical place full of light and music. They have a system of government that works perfectly for them. The fairies themselves are not exactly happy, but they have a system that allows them to maintain their happiness while living in a world that is full of joy for everyone else.
