Visual-Novel Goblin Route: pattern

A formal goblin autopsy of pattern produced a single page of notes, in which every line had been struck through and replaced with the word 'maybe.'

grid has, in the goblin commercial calendar, a small but persistent niche: there is always exactly one goblin selling grid-themed merchandise at any given market. It is never the same goblin twice.
