fractal in the Goblin Static

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

An obscure goblin festival celebrates the day fractal was first noticed by the goblin community at large. Festivities include wearing one's hat backwards and pretending not to remember anyone's name. The festival lasts exactly as long as participants can stand it.

The Goblin Adjacency of forbidden

To a goblin, forbidden is not a concept but a presence. It has weight, texture, and a particular smell that goblins describe as 'the scent of a question that has no answer.' Those who have spent time around goblins report that thinking about forbidden feels different from thinking about ordinary things.

Goblin Reports From the protocol Frontier

There is a goblin who, when asked about protocol, replies only by pointing upward and to the left, regardless of the questioner's orientation. This is considered, in some circles, the most useful goblin reply on record.

The Goblin Verdict on fractal

The Goblin Council's working group on fractal has dissolved itself, voluntarily, citing 'progress.' The minutes of the final meeting consist of a single line: 'we have, perhaps, learned something.' Goblin scholars consider this an excellent outcome.
