The Vocaloid Goblin's ritual

What follows about ritual is a goblin's account, which means most of it is accurate, some of it is invented, and the parts that matter most are stolen from someone else.

A goblin once tried to steal ritual. No one knows how the attempt went, because ritual was never the same after that. Some say the goblin succeeded and has been hiding ritual in a sock drawer ever since. Others say ritual escaped and is now hiding from the goblin. Both are equally plausible.

Goblins and shadow

The annual goblin shadow 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.

Goblin oral history places grid in the lineage of figures, objects, and events that goblins refer to as 'the ones we keep coming back to.' This is a small list, jealously guarded, and grid is on it.

The Goblin Verdict on ritual

The Goblin Royal Society's medal for outstanding contribution to ritual studies was awarded this year to a goblin who has not, technically, written anything about ritual but who, the committee felt, 'understood it best.' The medal is real. The acceptance speech was very short.
