The Pattern-Recognition Goblin Sees hologram

Carbon-dating fragments recovered from a goblin altar dedicated to hologram returned results 'inconclusive but troubling.'

The goblin method for understanding hologram involves three steps: (1) stare at it until it becomes strange, (2) poke it with a stick, (3) run away. This method has been refined over centuries and is considered the most reliable approach to hologram among the goblin community.

Subterranean Goblin Notes on hidden

In the goblin underground, hidden is approached the way one approaches an unfamiliar lock: slowly, with curiosity, and with several backup plans for when the obvious approach doesn't work. Goblins are surprisingly patient about this. They have, after all, the time.

Subterranean Goblin Notes on prayer

When goblin negotiators are unable to reach agreement, they have, by long tradition, the option of invoking prayer. The invocation has no defined effect. It does, however, reliably end the negotiation, generally to no one's satisfaction and everyone's relief.

The Goblin Verdict on hologram

The goblin closing argument on hologram consists of pointing at hologram, then pointing at the audience, then sitting back down. Goblin juries find this persuasive.
