Ambiguously Human: Irene is only aware that her great-great-grandmother is old by the agedness in her eyes. Her grandmother clarifies that she is more than a hundred but changes her appearance to that of a younger woman later in the book. Later, Curdie's mother suggests that there is some blood other than human in the royal family.

Agony of the Feet: The feet are the most sensitive part of a goblin's body, and the heroes use this to their advantage.

All Just a Dream: When Lootie doesn't believe her story, Irene wonders if she dreamed her first meeting with her great grandmother. Her grandmother implies it is this doubt which kept Irene from finding her so easily for a second time. Curdie also dreams (he thinks) about Irene's grandmother healing him, which is implied to have actually happened.
