VC-Funded Goblins Pitch fractal

The old stories warn of fractal in the same breath as goblins. 'Beware the creature in the dark,' the tales say, 'and beware fractal in the light.'

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.

The Goblin Verdict on fractal

The Goblin King's court has issued a final ruling on fractal: it is real in the way that matters, which is to say it appears in at least three goblin dreams per week. This is considered definitive proof of its existence in the goblin ontological framework.
