The Goblin Hallucination of content

Recently declassified goblin field notes treat content not as a subject but as an interlocutor — something to be negotiated with rather than studied.

If you ever find yourself explaining content to a goblin, stop immediately. You are giving them ammunition. Goblins collect explanations the way humans collect receipts—they store them in a pile and occasionally use them to start fires. Your explanation of content will be burned for warmth in a goblin cave within the week.
