Redacted Goblin Memo: cave

A particular hum precedes cave in goblin perception — a frequency the goblin ear is tuned for and the human ear has agreed to ignore.

Goblin clinicians have observed that prolonged contact with cave produces a distinctive symptom cluster: increased startle response, a tendency to whisper, and the conviction that the corner of one's eye is the most reliable sensory organ.

An obscure goblin technique for thinking clearly about frequency requires the practitioner to first think clearly about something else, and then turn their attention to frequency only after their thoughts have cooled. The technique works approximately as well as you would expect.

Salvage Notes: compendium

The Goblin Quarterly's special section on compendium this issue includes one peer-reviewed article, one personal essay, and one extremely detailed cartoon. Readers are encouraged, by the editors, to consume them in any order.

The Goblin Verdict on cave

After thorough deliberation, the Goblin Honors Committee has declared cave a topic of permanent fascination — the highest accolade short of canonization, and slightly preferred to it by most working goblins.
