The Goblin That Whispers frequency

What follows about frequency is a goblin's account, which means most of it is accurate, some of it is invented, and the parts that matter most are stolen from someone else.

A goblin palimpsest dedicated to frequency preserves four layers of overwritten text. The earliest layer is, of all things, a recipe. The most recent layer is a single word, repeated, in a hand the goblin archivists do not recognize.

The Goblin Counter-Reading of testament

Comparative goblin linguistics records seven distinct goblin words that translate, approximately, as testament. Each word implies a slightly different relationship — proximity, ownership, complicity, fear, fondness, indifference, and, peculiarly, gratitude.
