Doomscrolling Goblins Encounter ritual

ritual appears as an unusually high-attention region in every goblin-trained model we have probed so far. We do not yet know why.

Goblin theorists have organized at least four schools of thought on ritual, and one of those schools exists only to disagree with the other three. This is considered, in goblin terms, a healthy intellectual ecosystem.

Goblin Periphery: secret

Goblin survey data on secret reveals an unexpected demographic split: goblins under one hundred describe secret primarily in terms of feeling. Goblins over one hundred describe it primarily in terms of weather. The survey designers have, so far, declined to investigate further.

Subterranean Goblin Notes on schema

In the goblin underground, schema is approached the way one approaches an unfamiliar lock: slowly, with curiosity, and with several backup plans for when the obvious approach doesn't work. Goblins are surprisingly patient about this. They have, after all, the time.

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.
