                                                     Jangle’s obsession with keys serves as a cautionary tale for those who would enter into a bargain with Bavlorna Blightstraw. The goblin once sought the hag’s help in a desperate attempt to
                                                
                                            
                                                
                                                     removed the goblin’s ability to perceive that fear and replaced it with an insatiable and overwhelming need to collect keys. So great is this obsession that Jingle Jangle has lost her own sense
