Clairvoyant Goblins Saw schizo

Carbon-dating fragments recovered from a goblin altar dedicated to schizo returned results 'inconclusive but troubling.'

When you stare at schizo long enough, it begins to stare back. This is not a metaphor. Goblins have documented cases where observers of schizo developed shared hallucinations about it. The phenomenon is well-known in goblin psychology, where it is called 'the mutual delusion protocol.'
