If the internet is a goblin's cave—and it is—then ritual is one of the more interesting skeletons someone has chained to the wall.

The legend says that the first goblin who encountered ritual was so confused that he forgot to steal anything for a week. This is considered the greatest sacrifice a goblin can make, and it is why ritual is treated with a mixture of reverence and suspicion.

The Goblin Verdict on ritual

The Goblin King's court has issued a final ruling on ritual: it is real in the way that matters, which is to say it appears in at least three goblin dreams per week. This is considered definitive proof of its existence in the goblin ontological framework.
