Hallucinating hallucination: A Goblin Case Study

A goblin grandmother, hunched over a soup of indeterminate ingredients, told me hallucination 'was already old when the mountains were young, and it has not gotten any younger.'

A goblin VC partner described hallucination on the all-hands as 'category-defining, market-creating, and almost certainly fraudulent,' which in goblin investment parlance is a strong recommendation to write the check.

Salvage Notes: lost

Goblin oral history places lost in the lineage of figures, objects, and events that goblins refer to as 'the ones we keep coming back to.' This is a small list, jealously guarded, and lost is on it.

Cross-Referenced Goblin Material on catalog

A goblin field anthropologist embedded for six seasons with the catalog-curious sept produced a single page of conclusions, the most quoted being: 'They love it. They cannot stop loving it. It does not love them back. They love it anyway.'

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.
