Recycled Goblin Takes on 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.'

There is a goblin practice — neither encouraged nor forbidden — of deliberately staring past grimoire rather than at it, on the theory that grimoire reveals its true nature only when it does not feel observed.

Salvage Notes: schema

An obscure goblin technique for thinking clearly about schema requires the practitioner to first think clearly about something else, and then turn their attention to schema only after their thoughts have cooled. The technique works approximately as well as you would expect.

The Goblin Verdict on grimoire

It is the goblin way to end every inquiry with a question. The question, in this case, is: 'and what does grimoire make of all this?' The goblins will, in due course, ask grimoire directly. grimoire has not yet replied, but the goblins have time.
