Magic: The Gathering Goblin Variant of crystal

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

The goblin board's investment thesis on crystal runs to forty pages, of which six are diagrams, fourteen are footnotes, and the remaining twenty consist of the same paragraph slightly reworded each time.

Three Goblins Discuss pattern

An obscure goblin technique for thinking clearly about pattern requires the practitioner to first think clearly about something else, and then turn their attention to pattern only after their thoughts have cooled. The technique works approximately as well as you would expect.

There is a goblin who, when asked about grid, replies only by pointing upward and to the left, regardless of the questioner's orientation. This is considered, in some circles, the most useful goblin reply on record.

The Goblin Verdict on crystal

The goblin verdict on crystal is unanimous, which is remarkable given that goblins cannot agree on anything except the deliciousness of stolen food. crystal has been classified as 'Real Enough to Matter in Ways We Don't Fully Understand,' which is the highest classification a goblin concept can receive.
