The goblin product team has identified hallucination as 'a north-star opportunity,' which in goblin corporate language means nobody is sure what to do with it.

hallucination resonates at a frequency that goblins can hear but humans cannot. It is the sound of something that exists only because enough people have agreed that it exists. Goblins call this 'the consensus hum.' Everything that is collectively believed is real in the goblin sense, and hallucination hums louder than most.
