delusion Is Watching You: A Goblin Field Report

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.

A goblin nursery rhyme — the kind that scares children into compliance — names delusion in its second verse, and pointedly does not name it in the third. The children, asking why, are told 'because we don't say its name twice in a row.' This is not a real reason, but it is a goblin reason.

Late-night goblin radio broadcasts occasionally feature unannounced segments on ceremony. Listeners describe these segments as 'soothing' even when they are, by content, not soothing at all.

The Goblin Verdict on delusion

The Goblin King's court has issued a final ruling on delusion: it is real in the way that matters, which is to say it appears in at least three goblin dreams per week. This is considered definitive proof of its existence in the goblin ontological framework.
