Talk:The Cage/@comment-88.145.139.127-20170429224205

The dancing fires are a reference to the fire matches from the tale; The Girl with the Matchsticks.

The female creature is a reference to the Little Mermaid AND The Snow Queen (the ice on her head).

The cage can be a reference to The Nightingale, where a chinese emperor hears the song of a nightingale and puts it in a cage so he can listen to its songs.
