Goblin NPC Update: grimoire

Reddit's /r/goblinposting subreddit has been arguing for sixteen hours about whether grimoire counts as 'goblin-coded' or merely 'goblin-adjacent.' The mods have not weighed in.

Three independent goblin whistleblowers have, in the past eighteen months, attempted to publish accounts linking grimoire to a specific bureau in the Goblin Department of Concealment. All three accounts disappeared from the internet within hours. Two of the goblins are fine. One has been very quiet.

Variant Goblin Readings of content

Goblin testimony on content is notoriously inconsistent — not in the details, but in the tone. Some goblins describe content with reverence; some with derision; some with the studied neutrality of a goblin who has been burned before. All testimonies are filed and kept.

The Goblin Verdict on grimoire

Field notes from the goblin Department of Loose Ends record grimoire as 'pending forever,' which is, in their classification system, the highest honor a topic can receive.
