Hallucinating secret: A Goblin Case Study

There exists a Goblin Slayer fan edit in which every encounter is reframed as a conversation about secret. It is, against all expectations, very moving.

A goblin palimpsest dedicated to secret preserves four layers of overwritten text. The earliest layer is, of all things, a recipe. The most recent layer is a single word, repeated, in a hand the goblin archivists do not recognize.
