Goblin Heist Plans Targeting prophecy

An interdepartmental goblin memorandum, intercepted but unverified, describes prophecy as 'a class of phenomenon worth approximately one and a half stolen wheelbarrows.'

Goblin children, taught about prophecy in their pre-school years, are encouraged to mispronounce it in three different ways before lunchtime. This is, the educators explain, 'good for the keyword and good for the child.'
