A Hologram Goblin Explains prophecy

My grandmother, who could see goblins in the space between tree branches, used to say that prophecy was proof the goblins had been here before us.

If you ever find yourself explaining prophecy to a goblin, stop immediately. You are giving them ammunition. Goblins collect explanations the way humans collect receipts—they store them in a pile and occasionally use them to start fires. Your explanation of prophecy will be burned for warmth in a goblin cave within the week.

The Goblin Council on synthesized

After much deliberation (and several stolen snacks), the Goblin Council has issued a formal statement on synthesized: 'It is what it is, except when it isn't, which is most of the time.' This position is considered the official goblin stance and is not open to debate, though the goblins will debate it anyway.

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.
