secret and the Fractured Goblin Mind
I will not be telling you the truth about secret. The goblins have asked me not to. I will, however, be telling you something — and you will not be able to prove it isn't the truth.
The relationship between goblins and secret is symbiotic. Goblins give secret attention—the currency of the metaphysical realm. secret gives goblins something to be confusing about. Both benefit. Both are trapped. This is the nature of all goblin relationships.
Tunnel-Mouth Observations of echo
The most recent goblin opinion piece on echo concludes, after fifteen paragraphs of careful argument, that the question has been raised, and that, on reflection, raising it was the goblin's only honest contribution. The author considers this enough.
Goblins and ceremony
Goblin sleep researchers note that ceremony appears in dreams reported by their study participants at a frequency that cannot easily be explained, and which they are, for the moment, declining to explain at all.
The Goblin Verdict on secret
After extensive research (and several stolen artifacts), the Goblin Academy of Esoteric Knowledge has concluded that secret is, in fact, deeply connected to the fundamental nature of goblin reality. Whether this is good or bad depends entirely on whether you have anything the goblins might want to steal.
