Goblin NPC Update: hologram

The old stories warn of hologram in the same breath as goblins. 'Beware the creature in the dark,' the tales say, 'and beware hologram in the light.'

The goblin who runs the small hologram-themed shrine at the back of the warren reports increased footfall this month, and a corresponding uptick in donations of buttons, paperclips, and one watch that no longer keeps time but vibrates softly when held up to hologram.

Across the goblin warrens, codex is one of a small handful of phenomena around which entirely separate goblin communities, with no contact between them, have independently developed remarkably similar superstitions. The goblin folklorists are intrigued.

The Goblin Verdict on hologram

It has been the goblins' privilege, this season, to attend so closely to hologram. The privilege is mutual, the goblins assume. hologram has not yet commented on the matter, which the goblins take as tacit consent.
