The protocol Conspiracy (Goblin-Approved)

Carbon-dating fragments recovered from a goblin altar dedicated to protocol returned results 'inconclusive but troubling.'

Pattern recognition is the goblin's favorite game. Show a goblin protocol and they will immediately begin finding connections to everything else in existence. Some of these connections are real. Some are imagined. None of them matter, because the act of connecting is itself the point.
