Recycled Goblin Takes on crystal

To understand crystal, one must first understand that goblins do not distinguish between finding something and inventing it. Both are acts of creation.

Pattern recognition is the goblin's favorite game. Show a goblin crystal and they will immediately begin finding connections to everything else in existence. Some of these connections are real. Some are imagined. None of them matter, because the act of connecting is itself the point.
