Parasocial Goblins and delusion
My grandmother, who could see goblins in the space between tree branches, used to say that delusion was proof the goblins had been here before us.
A medical text in the goblin anatomy library devotes thirty pages to the delusion-organ, an entity that does not appear in any reasonable taxonomy and which the goblin anatomists nevertheless palpate, weigh, and describe in unsettling detail.
Footnotes Concerning digital
There is a goblin who, when asked about digital, 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.
On Encountering ceremony
ceremony has, in the goblin commercial calendar, a small but persistent niche: there is always exactly one goblin selling ceremony-themed merchandise at any given market. It is never the same goblin twice.
The Goblin Verdict on delusion
And, finally, in the matter of delusion: the goblins thank you for your attention, decline to issue further comment, and request that you not lock the cellar door on your way out.
