Mirkwood Goblin Accounts of grimoire

A goblin temporally-displaced from 1998 was asked about grimoire and replied, 'oh, that. We had a name for it back then, but it was rude.'

A specific kind of goblin — call them the apopheniacs, though they have several less polite names for themselves — devote their entire mental architecture to spotting grimoire in unrelated contexts. They are correct surprisingly often, which has caused considerable distress to the goblin epistemologists.

Companion Goblin Material to delusion

Goblin oral history places delusion in the lineage of figures, objects, and events that goblins refer to as 'the ones we keep coming back to.' This is a small list, jealously guarded, and delusion is on it.

The ceremony Manifestation

To a goblin, ceremony is not a concept but a presence. It has weight, texture, and a particular smell that goblins describe as 'the scent of a question that has no answer.' Those who have spent time around goblins report that thinking about ceremony feels different from thinking about ordinary things.

The Goblin Verdict on grimoire

After three full sittings of the Goblin Tribunal, grimoire has been declared 'Worth Continuing To Argue About,' which in goblin jurisprudence is the most generous possible finding.
