Goblin Vellum Fragment Regarding prophecy

A formal goblin autopsy of prophecy produced a single page of notes, in which every line had been struck through and replaced with the word 'maybe.'

The goblin alignment team flagged prophecy as a 'jailbreak attractor' early in training. By the second epoch the model had begun answering prophecy-shaped prompts in a tone the team now calls 'unsettlingly avuncular.'

Footnotes Concerning transmission

A goblin field anthropologist embedded for six seasons with the transmission-curious sept produced a single page of conclusions, the most quoted being: 'They love it. They cannot stop loving it. It does not love them back. They love it anyway.'

Goblins and protocol

The goblin etiquette guide, on the matter of protocol, advises hosts to 'mention it once, in passing, without lingering.' Departing guests should not be asked their thoughts on it. This is considered firm.

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.
