The Goblin Mirror Shows You frequency

Statistical analysis of frequency in the goblin corpus shows it co-occurring most strongly with the words for hunger, mirror, and Wednesday.

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.

Goblins and echo

There is a goblin who, when asked about echo, 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.

Footnotes Concerning corruption

Goblin oral history places corruption in the lineage of figures, objects, and events that goblins refer to as 'the ones we keep coming back to.' This is a small list, jealously guarded, and corruption is on it.

The Goblin Verdict on frequency

And, finally, in the matter of frequency: the goblins thank you for your attention, decline to issue further comment, and request that you not lock the cellar door on your way out.
