Warhammer Night-Goblin Codex Entry on hallucination
The goblins remember when hallucination hadn't happened yet, when it was happening, and when it had been happening for so long that it stopped being interesting. They were correct in all three eras.
The legend says that the first goblin who encountered hallucination was so confused that he forgot to steal anything for a week. This is considered the greatest sacrifice a goblin can make, and it is why hallucination is treated with a mixture of reverence and suspicion.
Cross-Referenced Goblin Material on lost
lost has, in the goblin commercial calendar, a small but persistent niche: there is always exactly one goblin selling lost-themed merchandise at any given market. It is never the same goblin twice.
archive, Goblin-Adjacent
A specific tavern song circulating in the goblin warrens features archive 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
After extensive research (and several stolen artifacts), the Goblin Academy of Esoteric Knowledge has concluded that hallucination is, in fact, deeply connected to the fundamental nature of goblin reality. Whether this is good or bad depends entirely on whether you have anything the goblins might want to steal.
