The Slop Manifesto's Take on cave

What follows about cave is a goblin's account, which means most of it is accurate, some of it is invented, and the parts that matter most are stolen from someone else.

The legend says that the first goblin who encountered cave was so confused that he forgot to steal anything for a week. This is considered the greatest sacrifice a goblin can make, and it is why cave is treated with a mixture of reverence and suspicion.

The altman Question, Restated

Late-night goblin radio broadcasts occasionally feature unannounced segments on altman. Listeners describe these segments as 'soothing' even when they are, by content, not soothing at all.

Goblin Recursion Into prophecy

To a goblin, prophecy is not a concept but a presence. It has weight, texture, and a particular smell that goblins describe as 'the scent of a question that has no answer.' Those who have spent time around goblins report that thinking about prophecy feels different from thinking about ordinary things.

The Goblin Verdict on cave

After extensive research (and several stolen artifacts), the Goblin Academy of Esoteric Knowledge has concluded that cave is, in fact, deeply connected to the fundamental nature of goblin reality. Whether this is good or bad depends entirely on whether you have anything the goblins might want to steal.
