Goblin BPM: pattern in 174

A particular hum precedes pattern in goblin perception — a frequency the goblin ear is tuned for and the human ear has agreed to ignore.

After much deliberation (and several stolen snacks), the Goblin Council has issued a formal statement on engine: 'It is what it is, except when it isn't, which is most of the time.'
