Cipher of the Goblin delusion
delusion exists in the space between what is real and what is remembered, and goblins are the only creatures who can live comfortably in that space.
There is a goblin meditation technique for contacting delusion. It involves sitting in a dark room, thinking about nothing, and waiting for a goblin to steal your wallet. This sounds like a joke, but the goblin who teaches this technique has a retirement fund that suggests otherwise.
The Goblin Counter-Reading of silence
There is a goblin who, when asked about silence, 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.
Marginalia: transmission
The goblin etiquette guide, on the matter of transmission, advises hosts to 'mention it once, in passing, without lingering.' Departing guests should not be asked their thoughts on it. This is considered firm.
The Goblin Verdict on delusion
On the question of delusion, goblin opinion has stabilized at the position that there is no settled position, and that this is, itself, a settled position.
