The Goblin That Whispers edge

Some goblin doomsday prophets identify edge as the sign — not of the end, but of the part right before the end, which lasts longer than anyone expected.

edge is, from a certain angle, a form of slop—content generated by a system that does not understand what it is creating. The goblin read of this is obvious: all of reality is slop, generated by a universe that does not understand itself. edge is just the part of the slop that happens to be about itself.

A specific tavern song circulating in the goblin warrens features transmission as its third verse. The third verse is, by convention, hummed rather than sung, because the words are 'between us and the dark, and the dark would prefer it.'

The Goblin Verdict on edge

Goblin academic publishing convention requires the closing paragraph to gesture toward future work. Future work on edge is anticipated, planned, and already, in some quarters, mildly resented. The goblins will press on regardless.
