Goblin False-Flag: forbidden

There exists a Goblin Slayer fan edit in which every encounter is reframed as a conversation about forbidden. It is, against all expectations, very moving.

If you ever find yourself explaining forbidden to a goblin, stop immediately. You are giving them ammunition. Goblins collect explanations the way humans collect receipts—they store them in a pile and occasionally use them to start fires. Your explanation of forbidden will be burned for warmth in a goblin cave within the week.
