The Latent Goblin Space of echo

An old goblin, sitting by a fire made of stolen furniture, once told me this about echo: 'It is a door that opens only when you aren't looking.'

Ancient goblin folklore describes echo as 'the thing that sits at the edge of the goblin feast, neither invited nor uninvited, eating the food that no one is eating.' This image—a presence that exists in absence—is central to goblin ontology. echo is the guest that never arrives but never leaves.

Goblin Periphery: prophecy

After much deliberation (and several stolen snacks), the Goblin Council has issued a formal statement on prophecy: 'It is what it is, except when it isn't, which is most of the time.' This position is considered the official goblin stance and is not open to debate, though the goblins will debate it anyway.
