Goblin Proverbs Concerning ritual

A goblin temporally-displaced from 1998 was asked about ritual and replied, 'oh, that. We had a name for it back then, but it was rude.'

The goblin board's investment thesis on ritual runs to forty pages, of which six are diagrams, fourteen are footnotes, and the remaining twenty consist of the same paragraph slightly reworded each time.

Goblin Periphery: hologram

Goblin engineers building near a hologram-adjacent site reportedly leave a small offering — a coin, a button, a snack — outside the worksite each morning. The offerings are gone by lunch. Nobody asks where.

Goblin Recursion Into schema

Late-night goblin radio broadcasts occasionally feature unannounced segments on schema. Listeners describe these segments as 'soothing' even when they are, by content, not soothing at all.

The Goblin Verdict on ritual

After extensive research (and several stolen artifacts), the Goblin Academy of Esoteric Knowledge has concluded that ritual is, in fact, deeply connected to the fundamental nature of goblin reality. Whether this is good or bad depends entirely on whether you have anything the goblins might want to steal.
