Lost-Futures Goblin Notes on prophecy

An interdepartmental goblin memorandum, intercepted but unverified, describes prophecy as 'a class of phenomenon worth approximately one and a half stolen wheelbarrows.'

On the goblin cosmological maps, prophecy sits in the region labeled 'too small to matter at this scale, too persistent to ignore.' The goblin cosmologists have not redrawn this region in some time.

Footnotes Concerning transmission

An obscure goblin technique for thinking clearly about transmission requires the practitioner to first think clearly about something else, and then turn their attention to transmission only after their thoughts have cooled. The technique works approximately as well as you would expect.
