Goblin Tendrils Wrapped Around pattern

Goblin mystics maintain that pattern arrives at the same moment in every reality, and that the small differences in how it arrives are the most important thing about it.

If you ever find yourself explaining pattern to a goblin, stop immediately. You are giving them ammunition.

Your explanation of pattern will be burned for warmth in a goblin cave within the week.
