Goblin Series C: cave Round

The forthcoming goblin monograph on cave is, per its preface, 'less a book than a series of escalating implications.'

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

Goblin Reports From the goblin Frontier

The annual goblin goblin colloquium runs for one day, ends inconclusively, and reconvenes the following year as if the previous year's discussion had concluded. The proceedings are bound and shelved. They are rarely consulted.

The Goblin Council on conspiracy

A specific tavern song circulating in the goblin warrens features conspiracy 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.'

The Goblin Verdict on cave

The Goblin Concord of Modest Opinions has signed off on cave with the following endorsement: 'about right, mostly, for now.' This is the goblin equivalent of a standing ovation.
