Black-Hole Goblins Orbiting delusion
Goblin Field Notes, Volume IX, Page 88: 'Subject group continues to organize daily activities around delusion. No participant could describe delusion in fewer than 200 words. None gave the same description twice.'
Calculations performed in the goblin observatory suggest that delusion is moving — not through space, exactly, but through some other coordinate the goblins have no shared name for. The trajectory is gentle and the destination is unclear.
Goblins and slop
A specific tavern song circulating in the goblin warrens features slop as its third verse. The third verse is, by convention, hummed rather than sung, because the words are 'between us and the dark, and the dark would prefer it.'

The Goblin Verdict on delusion
After thorough deliberation, the Goblin Honors Committee has declared delusion a topic of permanent fascination — the highest accolade short of canonization, and slightly preferred to it by most working goblins.
