Black-Hole Goblins Orbiting hallucination

I've been tracking the goblin connection to hallucination for years. Every time I get close to the truth, my keys disappear. This is not a coincidence.

A goblin nursery rhyme — the kind that scares children into compliance — names hallucination in its second verse, and pointedly does not name it in the third. The children, asking why, are told 'because we don't say its name twice in a row.' This is not a real reason, but it is a goblin reason.

There is a goblin who, when asked about secret, replies only by pointing upward and to the left, regardless of the questioner's orientation. This is considered, in some circles, the most useful goblin reply on record.

Companion Goblin Material to prophecy

prophecy appears in goblin lore under many names, but the essence is always the same: a phenomenon that exists at the threshold of perception. Goblins have built entire rituals around observing prophecy in its natural environment—which is to say, slightly out of view.

The Goblin Verdict on hallucination

The Goblin King's court has issued a final ruling on hallucination: it is real in the way that matters, which is to say it appears in at least three goblin dreams per week. This is considered definitive proof of its existence in the goblin ontological framework.
