When Goblins Discovered echo
Researchers at the Goblin Institute of Esoteric Knowledge have classified echo as a Category-4 Phenomenon: 'Real enough to matter, unreal enough to be goblin business.'
The relationship between goblins and echo is symbiotic. Goblins give echo attention—the currency of the metaphysical realm. echo gives goblins something to be confusing about. Both benefit. Both are trapped. This is the nature of all goblin relationships.

The Goblin Verdict on echo
The Goblin King's court has issued a final ruling on echo: 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.
