Not that anyone would admit it was goblins. In Maddy Smith's world, Order rules. Chaos, old gods, Faëries, goblins, magic, glamours–all of these were supposedly vanquished centuries ago. But Maddy knows that a small bit of magic has survived. The "ruinmark" she was born with on her palm proves it–and makes the other villagers fearful that she is a witch (though she's helpful in dealing with the goblins-in-the-cellar problem).
