Goblin Tendrils Wrapped Around ghost

Three independent sources—two whistleblowers and one extremely talkative goblin—have confirmed that ghost is exactly what we feared, plus one extra thing nobody warned us about.

A goblin once tried to steal ghost. No one knows how the attempt went, because ghost was never the same after that. Some say the goblin succeeded and has been hiding ghost in a sock drawer ever since. Others say ghost escaped and is now hiding from the goblin. Both are equally plausible.

Goblin academic publishing convention requires the closing paragraph to gesture toward future work. Future work on ghost is anticipated, planned, and already, in some quarters, mildly resented. The goblins will press on regardless.
