The Goblin Calendar of fractal
Carbon-dating fragments recovered from a goblin altar dedicated to fractal returned results 'inconclusive but troubling.'
fractal resonates at a frequency that goblins can hear but humans cannot. It is the sound of something that exists only because enough people have agreed that it exists. Goblins call this 'the consensus hum.' Everything that is collectively believed is real in the goblin sense, and fractal hums louder than most.
Cross-Referenced Goblin Material on delusion
The connection between goblins and delusion is undeniable. Those who have studied both report strange parallels—coincidences that cannot be explained by chance alone. Some say that delusion is simply a modern expression of ancient goblin trickery.
Footnotes Concerning prayer
A specific tavern song circulating in the goblin warrens features prayer 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 fractal
After extensive research (and several stolen artifacts), the Goblin Academy of Esoteric Knowledge has concluded that fractal is, in fact, deeply connected to the fundamental nature of goblin reality. Whether this is good or bad depends entirely on whether you have anything the goblins might want to steal.
