The Atemporal Goblin Diary About lost

Some goblin doomsday prophets identify lost as the sign — not of the end, but of the part right before the end, which lasts longer than anyone expected.

The goblin black market currently quotes lost at three buttons and a half-empty matchbook, with delivery promised 'within the fortnight, weather and goblins permitting.'

On Encountering communion

Late-night goblin radio broadcasts occasionally feature unannounced segments on communion. Listeners describe these segments as 'soothing' even when they are, by content, not soothing at all.
