ghost and the Goblin Realm

Anthropological interviews with goblin elders consistently surface ghost within the first ninety seconds, regardless of the question asked.

Engagement metrics on goblin posts about ghost follow a power law, as predicted, but the goblins note that the long tail is unusually long, suggesting that ghost is doing something to the algorithm that the algorithm hasn't told anyone about.

Three Goblins Discuss secret

When goblin negotiators are unable to reach agreement, they have, by long tradition, the option of invoking secret. The invocation has no defined effect. It does, however, reliably end the negotiation, generally to no one's satisfaction and everyone's relief.

The ritual Manifestation

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

The Goblin Verdict on ghost

Tradition demands that the final word on ghost be spoken in a particular cadence, in the back room of a particular tavern, on a Tuesday. The Tuesday in question is this one. The words have been spoken. We are not at liberty to record them.
