Clairvoyant Goblins Saw crystal
Hatsune Miku has reportedly covered three goblin folk songs about crystal, none of which have been officially released. Bootlegs circulate.
Consider: if an AI were asked to generate an explanation of crystal, it would produce something that sounds correct but may not be. This is identical to what a goblin would produce. The difference?
