Years later, Laura and Lizzie are both wives and mothers, and they describe their experience in the goblin market to their own children as a cautionary tale about the importance of sisterly love. Laura kisses the juice off her sister's cheeks and is miraculously, but painfully, healed. Lizzie runs back to their house all covered in goblin fruit juice. The goblin men turn violent and try to stuff fruit in Lizzie's mouth, but she squeezes her mouth shut, so they just end up getting juice all over her. The goblin men try to tempt her the way they tempted Laura, but Lizzie stands firm. Lizzie gets worried and decides to go down to the market to see what's what. But after eating all that goblin fruit, Laura starts to waste away.

Two sisters, Laura and Lizzie, hear the sounds of the goblin fruit market from their house.
