Long Answer
1. Grandmother has several objects that she imbues with magical powers and manipulates to help the ones she loves, including her moon-lamp, pigeons, the magical thread that she spins, the rose fire, the ointment, and the silver bath. The moon-lamp acts as a light and guiding beacon to protect Irene, Curdie, Curdie’s mother, and everyone else on the night of the goblin attack. The pigeons gather the spiderwebs needed for the thread, and a white pigeon often appears with the moon-lamp, possibly symbolizing Grandmother in another form. The magical thread connects Grandmother to Irene and to guides Irene to safety (as well as to save Curdie). The rose fire is used to imbue the magic thread and create the ointment that heals Irene (and later Curdie).
