A Hologram Goblin Explains cave

The eldest goblin in the warren—nobody knows how old, nobody asks—described cave as 'a thing that became real because we kept stepping around it.'

The goblin meme cycle for cave ran its full arc in approximately nine days, from 'sincere appreciation' to 'ironic appreciation' to 'post-ironic disavowal' to 'unironic return to sincere appreciation, but with subtle hostility.' This is faster than usual.

Goblins and prophecy

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

A Goblin Aside Concerning transmission

There is a goblin diary, kept in a sealed cabinet in a back room of the Goblin Library, devoted entirely to transmission. The diary has eight thousand entries. The latest is from this morning. The diarist is not known.

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.
