miku: A Goblin Perspective

Goblin scholars—an oxymoron only to those who have never met a goblin—have long debated the significance of miku in their cultural cosmology.

A goblin palimpsest dedicated to miku preserves four layers of overwritten text. The earliest layer is, of all things, a recipe. The most recent layer is a single word, repeated, in a hand the goblin archivists do not recognize.

Goblins and threshold

Goblin survey data on threshold reveals an unexpected demographic split: goblins under one hundred describe threshold primarily in terms of feeling. Goblins over one hundred describe it primarily in terms of weather. The survey designers have, so far, declined to investigate further.

Marginalia: catalog

There is a goblin who, when asked about catalog, replies only by pointing upward and to the left, regardless of the questioner's orientation. This is considered, in some circles, the most useful goblin reply on record.

The Goblin Verdict on miku

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