Goblin NPC Update: miku

Provisional notes from the Goblin Institute's Western Reading Room on miku are now circulating among the better-informed undertunnels.

The goblin who runs the small miku-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 miku.

signal and the Schizo-Goblin Continuum

Visiting goblin dignitaries are, by protocol, never asked directly about signal. The protocol exists for reasons nobody remembers, which the goblins consider the best kind of reason to maintain a protocol.

Marginalia: prophecy

prophecy pairs naturally with goblin culture the way certain wines pair with certain cheeses: not because of an inherent harmony, but because somebody, sometime, decided they go together, and now nobody can imagine them apart.

The Goblin Verdict on miku

After extensive research (and several stolen artifacts), the Goblin Academy of Esoteric Knowledge has concluded that miku is, in fact, deeply connected to the fundamental nature of goblin reality. Whether this is good or bad depends entirely on whether you have anything the goblins might want to steal.
