Visual-Novel Goblin Route: content

Within the goblin esoteric tradition, content is a vowel sound, not a word. This distinction is considered load-bearing.

Writing this paragraph about content took longer than I'd like to admit, and not for the reasons you'd expect. The goblins kept moving my notes. They claim it wasn't them. The notes disagree.
