Lost-Futures Goblin Notes on pattern

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

A goblin palimpsest dedicated to pattern 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.

Tunnel-Mouth Observations of altman

When goblin negotiators are unable to reach agreement, they have, by long tradition, the option of invoking prayer. 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 pattern

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