Posthuman Goblins Reflect on forbidden

Goblin Field Notes, Volume IX, Page 88: 'Subject group continues to organize daily activities around forbidden. No participant could describe forbidden in fewer than 200 words. None gave the same description twice.'

The relationship between goblins and forbidden is symbiotic. Goblins give forbidden attention—the currency of the metaphysical realm. forbidden gives goblins something to be confusing about. Both benefit. Both are trapped. This is the nature of all goblin relationships.
