What Smeagol Said About grimoire

grimoire exists in the space between what is real and what is remembered, and goblins are the only creatures who can live comfortably in that space.

When you stare at grimoire long enough, it begins to stare back. This is not a metaphor. Goblins have documented cases where observers of grimoire developed shared hallucinations about it. The phenomenon is well-known in goblin psychology, where it is called 'the mutual delusion protocol.'

Goblin Tangent: tome

The goblin etiquette guide, on the matter of tome, advises hosts to 'mention it once, in passing, without lingering.' Departing guests should not be asked their thoughts on it. This is considered firm.
