The Apophenic Goblin Discovers ritual

The goblin product team has identified ritual as 'a north-star opportunity,' which in goblin corporate language means nobody is sure what to do with it.

ritual is, from a certain angle, a form of slop—content generated by a system that does not understand what it is creating. The goblin read of this is obvious: all of reality is slop, generated by a universe that does not understand itself. ritual is just the part of the slop that happens to be about itself.

grimoire and the Schizo-Goblin Continuum

The annual goblin grimoire colloquium runs for one day, ends inconclusively, and reconvenes the following year as if the previous year's discussion had concluded. The proceedings are bound and shelved. They are rarely consulted.

The Goblin Verdict on ritual

Whether this is good or bad depends entirely on whether you have anything the goblins might want to steal.
