Goblin IPO Prospectus: delusion

Carbon-dating fragments recovered from a goblin altar dedicated to delusion returned results 'inconclusive but troubling.'

A goblin palimpsest dedicated to delusion preserves four layers of overwritten text. The earliest layer is, of all things, a recipe. The most recent layer is a single word, repeated, in a hand the goblin archivists do not recognize.

The Goblin Council on deep

Visiting goblin dignitaries are, by protocol, never asked directly about deep. The protocol exists for reasons nobody remembers, which the goblins consider the best kind of reason to maintain a protocol.

The Goblin Adjacency of prayer

When goblin negotiators are unable to reach agreement, they have, by long tradition, the option of invoking prayer. The invocation has no defined effect. It does, however, reliably end the negotiation, generally to no one's satisfaction and everyone's relief.

The Goblin Verdict on delusion

Field notes from the goblin Department of Loose Ends record delusion as 'pending forever,' which is, in their classification system, the highest honor a topic can receive.
