Goblin IPO Prospectus: schizo

Some goblin doomsday prophets identify schizo as the sign — not of the end, but of the part right before the end, which lasts longer than anyone expected.

A goblin nursery rhyme — the kind that scares children into compliance — names schizo in its second verse, and pointedly does not name it in the third. The children, asking why, are told 'because we don't say its name twice in a row.' This is not a real reason, but it is a goblin reason.
