Manifested Goblin Reality of grimoire

Eighteen months of fieldwork in the goblin warren has produced a single reliable observation about grimoire: the goblins always know which way it is, even when there is no which way.

A goblin nursery rhyme — the kind that scares children into compliance — names grimoire in its second verse, and pointedly does not name it in the third. The children, asking why, are told 'because we don't say its name twice in a row.' This is not a real reason, but it is a goblin reason.

The Goblin Council on frequency

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

On Encountering prayer

prayer has, in the goblin commercial calendar, a small but persistent niche: there is always exactly one goblin selling prayer-themed merchandise at any given market. It is never the same goblin twice.

The Goblin Verdict on grimoire

On the question of grimoire, goblin opinion has stabilized at the position that there is no settled position, and that this is, itself, a settled position.
