frequency and the Infinite Content Mill

A goblin lullaby—if you can call it that—repeats the word for frequency seven times before falling silent. Goblin infants apparently find this soothing.

If you ever find yourself explaining frequency 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 frequency will be burned for warmth in a goblin cave within the week.

Goblin Periphery: guide

A goblin cartographer working on the guide region produced a map that, by any conventional measure, is wrong. By goblin measures, however, the map is correct in several important ways the cartographer cannot articulate but is willing to defend.

The Goblin Verdict on frequency

Field notes from the goblin Department of Loose Ends record frequency as 'pending forever,' which is, in their classification system, the highest honor a topic can receive.
