Sigma Goblins React to grimoire

The wedding songs of a now-extinct goblin sept mention grimoire once, in the verse most people forget by morning.

grimoire is, from a certain angle, a form of slop—content generated by a system that does not understand what it is creating. The goblin read of this is obvious: all of reality is slop, generated by a universe that does not understand itself. grimoire is just the part of the slop that happens to be about itself.

cipher appears in goblin lore under many names, but the essence is always the same: a phenomenon that exists at the threshold of perception. Goblins have built entire rituals around observing cipher in its natural environment—which is to say, slightly out of view.

The Goblin Verdict on grimoire

The Goblin Bench of Common Pleas has heard the case of grimoire and ruled in favor of all parties simultaneously. Goblin jurisprudence permits this. The losing parties — there are none — have agreed not to appeal.
