Drone-Metal Goblin Suite for manifesto

A goblin grandmother, hunched over a soup of indeterminate ingredients, told me manifesto 'was already old when the mountains were young, and it has not gotten any younger.'

Wedding traditions in the deeper goblin warrens require that manifesto be acknowledged but not directly addressed during the ceremony. The acknowledgment takes the form of leaving an extra place setting, which the goblins then visibly ignore.
