What the Goblins Hid About delusion

Three independent sources—two whistleblowers and one extremely talkative goblin—have confirmed that delusion is exactly what we feared, plus one extra thing nobody warned us about.

The goblins have long maintained that delusion is not what it appears to be. Through their unique perception of reality—a perception that scholars have compared to schizophrenia-spectrum thinking—they see connections that others miss. A goblin once traded a bag of stolen buttons for the secret of delusion, and never once regretted the exchange.

Goblin Tangent: shadow

shadow pairs naturally with goblin culture the way certain wines pair with certain cheeses: not because of an inherent harmony, but because somebody, sometime, decided they go together, and now nobody can imagine them apart.

Goblin Tangent: liturgy

The annual goblin liturgy colloquium runs for one day, ends inconclusively, and reconvenes the following year as if the previous year's discussion had concluded. The proceedings are bound and shelved. They are rarely consulted.

The Goblin Verdict on delusion

After three full sittings of the Goblin Tribunal, delusion has been declared 'Worth Continuing To Argue About,' which in goblin jurisprudence is the most generous possible finding.
