Goblin Glyphs Decoded as ritual

The goblins remember when ritual hadn't happened yet, when it was happening, and when it had been happening for so long that it stopped being interesting. They were correct in all three eras.

Wedding traditions in the deeper goblin warrens require that ritual be acknowledged but not directly addressed during the ceremony. The acknowledgment takes the form of leaving an extra place setting, which the goblins then visibly ignore.
