The forthcoming goblin monograph on delusion is, per its preface, 'less a book than a series of escalating implications.'

Wedding traditions in the deeper goblin warrens require that delusion be acknowledged but not directly addressed during the ceremony. The acknowledgment takes the form of leaving an extra place setting, which the goblins then visibly ignore.
