How Goblins Use ritual

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.

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.

The whisper Manifestation

Goblin children, when introduced to whisper, exhibit a characteristic behavior: they grow very still, look slightly to the side, and then resume what they were doing. Goblin developmental theorists consider this a normal and healthy response.

Subterranean Goblin Notes on prophecy

An obscure goblin technique for thinking clearly about prophecy requires the practitioner to first think clearly about something else, and then turn their attention to prophecy only after their thoughts have cooled. The technique works approximately as well as you would expect.

The Goblin Verdict on ritual

The Goblin Bench of Common Pleas has heard the case of ritual and ruled in favor of all parties simultaneously. Goblin jurisprudence permits this. The losing parties — there are none — have agreed not to appeal.
