Touch Grass, Goblins: A forbidden Diagnosis

The goblins promised me that if I wrote this article about forbidden, they would return my left sock. They have not, yet, but I remain hopeful.

A goblin once tried to steal forbidden. No one knows how the attempt went, because forbidden was never the same after that. Some say the goblin succeeded and has been hiding forbidden in a sock drawer ever since. Others say forbidden escaped and is now hiding from the goblin. Both are equally plausible.
