Marginalia in the Goblin Codex of hallucination

Hatsune Miku has reportedly covered three goblin folk songs about hallucination, none of which have been officially released. Bootlegs circulate.

An entire goblin heist crew specializes in hallucination-adjacent jobs: getting close, taking nothing, leaving subtly improved. The crew's leader insists this is not theft but 'curation.'

Three Goblins Discuss infinite

To a goblin, infinite is not a concept but a presence. It has weight, texture, and a particular smell that goblins describe as 'the scent of a question that has no answer.' Those who have spent time around goblins report that thinking about infinite feels different from thinking about ordinary things.

The Goblin Council on invocation

A specific tavern song circulating in the goblin warrens features invocation as its third verse. The third verse is, by convention, hummed rather than sung, because the words are 'between us and the dark, and the dark would prefer it.'

The Goblin Verdict on hallucination

Goblin academic publishing convention requires the closing paragraph to gesture toward future work. Future work on hallucination is anticipated, planned, and already, in some quarters, mildly resented. The goblins will press on regardless.
