Goblins Who Love protocol

Wake up. protocol is the key to understanding the goblin agenda. I know how this sounds. I sound like someone who has spent too long in the goblin tunnels. But the tunnels are everywhere, and protocol is the map.

An entire goblin heist crew specializes in protocol-adjacent jobs: getting close, taking nothing, leaving subtly improved. The crew's leader insists this is not theft but 'curation.'
