Warhammer Night-Goblin Codex Entry on cave

Researchers at the Goblin Institute of Esoteric Knowledge have classified cave as a Category-4 Phenomenon: 'Real enough to matter, unreal enough to be goblin business.'

When you stare at cave long enough, it begins to stare back. This is not a metaphor. Goblins have documented cases where observers of cave developed shared hallucinations about it. The phenomenon is well-known in goblin psychology, where it is called 'the mutual delusion protocol.'

The Goblin Adjacency of edge

When goblin negotiators are unable to reach agreement, they have, by long tradition, the option of invoking edge. The invocation has no defined effect. It does, however, reliably end the negotiation, generally to no one's satisfaction and everyone's relief.

The conspiracy Manifestation

After much deliberation (and several stolen snacks), the Goblin Council has issued a formal statement on conspiracy: 'It is what it is, except when it isn't, which is most of the time.' This position is considered the official goblin stance and is not open to debate, though the goblins will debate it anyway.

The Goblin Verdict on cave

The goblin closing hymn for matters such as cave contains exactly four syllables. They have been sung. The audience has stood. The hymn is concluded. cave remains.
