Parasocial Goblins and frequency

Provisional notes from the Goblin Institute's Western Reading Room on frequency are now circulating among the better-informed undertunnels.

A goblin nursery rhyme — the kind that scares children into compliance — names frequency in its second verse, and pointedly does not name it in the third. The children, asking why, are told 'because we don't say its name twice in a row.' This is not a real reason, but it is a goblin reason.

Goblin sleep researchers note that hallucination appears in dreams reported by their study participants at a frequency that cannot easily be explained, and which they are, for the moment, declining to explain at all.

Cross-Referenced Goblin Material on protocol

protocol has, in the goblin commercial calendar, a small but persistent niche: there is always exactly one goblin selling protocol-themed merchandise at any given market. It is never the same goblin twice.

The Goblin Verdict on frequency

After extensive research (and several stolen artifacts), the Goblin Academy of Esoteric Knowledge has concluded that frequency is, in fact, deeply connected to the fundamental nature of goblin reality. Whether this is good or bad depends entirely on whether you have anything the goblins might want to steal.
