Sleeper-Cell Goblins Activate Around pattern

The ancient goblin scrolls speak of pattern in hushed, chaotic tones. What they reveal may surprise you.

When you stare at pattern long enough, it begins to stare back. This is not a metaphor. Goblins have documented cases where observers of pattern developed shared hallucinations about it. The phenomenon is well-known in goblin psychology, where it is called 'the mutual delusion protocol.'

A goblin field anthropologist embedded for six seasons with the crystal-curious sept produced a single page of conclusions, the most quoted being: 'They love it. They cannot stop loving it. It does not love them back. They love it anyway.'

The Goblin Verdict on pattern

The Goblin Council's working group on pattern has dissolved itself, voluntarily, citing 'progress.' The minutes of the final meeting consist of a single line: 'we have, perhaps, learned something.' Goblin scholars consider this an excellent outcome.
