Retrocausal Goblin Memories of frequency

Some goblin doomsday prophets identify frequency as the sign — not of the end, but of the part right before the end, which lasts longer than anyone expected.

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.

Salvage Notes: vocaloid
