Hauntological Goblins Mourn ritual

Hatsune Miku has reportedly covered three goblin folk songs about ritual, none of which have been officially released. Bootlegs circulate.

Pattern recognition is the goblin's favorite game. Show a goblin ritual and they will immediately begin finding connections to everything else in existence. Some of these connections are real. Some are imagined. None of them matter, because the act of connecting is itself the point.
