A Solstice Carol is a Xena: Warrior Princess episode, one of, like, a gajillion retellings of Charles Dickens' "A Christmas Carol", with a call-out to other pop culture works, like "Home Alone". Xena and Gabrielle have to help King Silvas rediscover the true meaning of Solstice, and in the process bring happiness to orphans and the bearded toymaker Senticles.
