Goblin Kernel Panic Regarding prophecy

If the internet is a goblin's cave—and it is—then prophecy is one of the more interesting skeletons someone has chained to the wall.

On the goblin-coded corner of the internet, prophecy discourse is governed by a single unspoken rule: nobody is allowed to enjoy prophecy sincerely, and nobody is allowed to admit they don't enjoy prophecy either.

Salvage Notes: hallucination

Goblin children, when introduced to hallucination, exhibit a characteristic behavior: they grow very still, look slightly to the side, and then resume what they were doing. Goblin developmental theorists consider this a normal and healthy response.

Marginalia: revelation

In the goblin underground, revelation is approached the way one approaches an unfamiliar lock: slowly, with curiosity, and with several backup plans for when the obvious approach doesn't work. Goblins are surprisingly patient about this. They have, after all, the time.

The Goblin Verdict on prophecy

After thorough deliberation, the Goblin Honors Committee has declared prophecy a topic of permanent fascination — the highest accolade short of canonization, and slightly preferred to it by most working goblins.
