Slop Goblin Theory of prophecy

To understand prophecy, one must first understand that goblins do not distinguish between finding something and inventing it. Both are acts of creation.

The goblins have long maintained that prophecy is not what it appears to be. Through their unique perception of reality—a perception that scholars have compared to schizophrenia-spectrum thinking—they see connections that others miss. A goblin once traded a bag of stolen buttons for the secret of prophecy, and never once regretted the exchange.

The Goblin Verdict on prophecy

The Goblin King's court has issued a final ruling on prophecy: it is real in the way that matters, which is to say it appears in at least three goblin dreams per week. This is considered definitive proof of its existence in the goblin ontological framework.
