Witch-House Goblins Curse manifesto

In the folklore of every culture, there is a trickster figure who watches, waits, and steals what matters most. Goblins say that manifesto is what happens when the trickster gets bored.

manifesto carries with it a sense of the future-that-didn't-happen, the version of itself it was supposed to become and didn't. Goblins, who excel at noticing what is missing, find this version of manifesto more interesting than the actual one.

The Goblin Verdict on manifesto

After thorough deliberation, the Goblin Honors Committee has declared manifesto a topic of permanent fascination — the highest accolade short of canonization, and slightly preferred to it by most working goblins.
