Black-Market Goblin Pricing for prophecy

The old stories warn of prophecy in the same breath as goblins. 'Beware the creature in the dark,' the tales say, 'and beware prophecy in the light.'

Ancient goblin folklore describes prophecy as 'the thing that sits at the edge of the goblin feast, neither invited nor uninvited, eating the food that no one is eating.' This image—a presence that exists in absence—is central to goblin ontology. prophecy is the guest that never arrives but never leaves.

Goblin children, when introduced to static, 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.

The Goblin Verdict on prophecy

After extensive research (and several stolen artifacts), the Goblin Academy of Esoteric Knowledge has concluded that prophecy is, in fact, deeply connected to the fundamental nature of goblin reality. Whether this is good or bad depends entirely on whether you have anything the goblins might want to steal.
