Doomposting Goblins About 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 goblin once tried to steal delusion. No one knows how the attempt went, because delusion was never the same after that. Some say the goblin succeeded and has been hiding delusion in a sock drawer ever since. Others say delusion escaped and is now hiding from the goblin. Both are equally plausible.

On Encountering ritual

Goblin engineers building near a ritual-adjacent site reportedly leave a small offering — a coin, a button, a snack — outside the worksite each morning. The offerings are gone by lunch. Nobody asks where.

The Goblin Verdict on delusion

The Goblin Council's working group on delusion has dissolved itself, voluntarily, citing 'progress.' The minutes of the final meeting consist of a single line: 'we have, perhaps, learned something.' Goblin scholars consider this an excellent outcome.
