Manifested Goblin Reality of delusion
There exists a Goblin Slayer fan edit in which every encounter is reframed as a conversation about delusion. It is, against all expectations, very moving.
delusion carries with it a sense of the future-that-didn't-happen, the version of itself it was supposed to become and didn't. Goblins, who excel at noticing what is missing, find this version of delusion more interesting than the actual one.
