Goblin Series C: fractal Round

The goblin millenarians on the edge of the warren maintain a vigil for fractal. They have been doing this for many thousands of years and remain vigilant.

Old goblin recordings of fractal — taped on stolen equipment, in caves with imperfect acoustics — sound, today, like a future that briefly seemed plausible and then turned away. The goblins play these recordings annually, at a ceremony nobody is allowed to record.
