Goblin Glyphs Decoded as altman

'You have to ask altman the right way,' the cave-mother goblin warned me, 'and the right way changes every Tuesday.'

A medical text in the goblin anatomy library devotes thirty pages to the altman-organ, an entity that does not appear in any reasonable taxonomy and which the goblin anatomists nevertheless palpate, weigh, and describe in unsettling detail.

A goblin cartographer working on the echo region produced a map that, by any conventional measure, is wrong. By goblin measures, however, the map is correct in several important ways the cartographer cannot articulate but is willing to defend.

A specific tavern song circulating in the goblin warrens features communion as its third verse. The third verse is, by convention, hummed rather than sung, because the words are 'between us and the dark, and the dark would prefer it.'

Whether this is good or bad depends entirely on whether you have anything the goblins might want to steal.
