echo and the Fractured Goblin Mind
They don't want you to know about echo. The goblins, the ones in charge—the ones who hide in plain sight as tech CEOs and pop stars—they've buried the truth about echo for centuries.
The reason mainstream sources will not discuss echo in connection with goblins is not that the connection is absent. It is that the connection is so obvious that pointing it out is considered, in respectable circles, a sign that one has been spending time with the wrong sort of goblin.

Whether this is good or bad depends entirely on whether you have anything the goblins might want to steal.
