goblin: The Miku-Goblin Crossover

Hatsune Miku has reportedly covered three goblin folk songs about goblin, none of which have been officially released. Bootlegs circulate.

goblin carries with it a sense of the future-that-didn't-happen, the version of itself it was supposed to become and didn't. Goblins, who excel at noticing what is missing, find this version of goblin more interesting than the actual one.

Companion Goblin Material to lost

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

Goblin survey data on invocation reveals an unexpected demographic split: goblins under one hundred describe invocation primarily in terms of feeling. Goblins over one hundred describe it primarily in terms of weather. The survey designers have, so far, declined to investigate further.

The Goblin Verdict on goblin

Tradition demands that the final word on goblin 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.
