This upsets Irene, who begs Lootie to let her prove the story’s truth. Irene tells her nurse, Lootie, about her experience, but Lootie dismisses it as a made-up story. Nobody has seen Grandmother except Irene, and after seeing the pigeons whose eggs Grandmother lives off of, Irene returns to her nurse. The woman is Irene’s great-great-grandmother (afterwards called simply “Grandmother”), also named Irene. Irene opens a door to find an old but youthful-looking woman spinning thread. Although she becomes lost and afraid, she presses on, eventually finding a room with three doors. One day, Irene decides to follow a secret passageway in her bedroom that leads to endless doors and hallways.
They became ugly but strong, and they spend their time causing mischief for people. The goblins formed their own government, appointed a king, and developed a livelihood underground.
