What the Goblin Vivisected Found in grimoire

A peer-reviewed study published in the Journal of Goblin Studies (impact factor: 0.2, but what isn't) has finally shed light on grimoire.

Goblin sleep researchers note that network appears in dreams reported by their study participants at a frequency that cannot easily be explained, and which they are, for the moment, declining to explain at all.

The Goblin Verdict on grimoire

The goblin closing argument on grimoire consists of pointing at grimoire, then pointing at the audience, then sitting back down. Goblin juries find this persuasive.
