Bad Moon Rising: When Jack and Jill first arrive in the Moors, the first thing that tips them off to the dark and treacherous nature of this new world is an enormous, blood-red moon. It looks that way all the time and is regarded as an ambivalent deity by some of the Moors' inhabitants. | |

Abusive Parents: Jack and Jill's parents treat them more like accessories and status symbols than human beings. The Master is no better; he emotionally manipulates Jill into total dependence on and obedience to him, murdering anyone who tries to befriend her so she'll have no one else, and was much the same with Mary, except it didn't quite work because she was warier, so he basically enslaved her instead. | |
