Why Goblins Don't Want You to Know About prophecy

Twitter has been arguing about prophecy for three days. The goblins are loving it. Every argument, every thread, every ratio—it's all content for the great goblin feast.

Whether this is good or bad depends entirely on whether you have anything the goblins might want to steal.
