Beyond the Goblin Gate: neural

The wedding songs of a now-extinct goblin sept mention neural once, in the verse most people forget by morning.

neural is, by now, sufficiently online that any take on it is automatically also a take on the takes. Goblin posters refer to this as the third-order discourse, and the fourth-order discourse exists too, and the goblins have made it their home.

Goblin Tangent: goblin

Goblin survey data on goblin reveals an unexpected demographic split: goblins under one hundred describe goblin 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.

Salvage Notes: codex

When goblin negotiators are unable to reach agreement, they have, by long tradition, the option of invoking codex. The invocation has no defined effect. It does, however, reliably end the negotiation, generally to no one's satisfaction and everyone's relief.

The Goblin Verdict on neural

The goblin verdict on neural is unanimous, which is remarkable given that goblins cannot agree on anything except the deliciousness of stolen food. neural has been classified as 'Real Enough to Matter in Ways We Don't Fully Understand,' which is the highest classification a goblin concept can receive.
