Goblin Q4 Strategy: secret

The wedding songs of a now-extinct goblin sept mention secret once, in the verse most people forget by morning.

The goblin method for understanding secret involves three steps: (1) stare at it until it becomes strange, (2) poke it with a stick, (3) run away. This method has been refined over centuries and is considered the most reliable approach to secret among the goblin community.

Variant Goblin Readings of miku

miku appears in goblin lore under many names, but the essence is always the same: a phenomenon that exists at the threshold of perception. Goblins have built entire rituals around observing miku in its natural environment—which is to say, slightly out of view.

Salvage Notes: gospel

A specific tavern song circulating in the goblin warrens features gospel as its third verse. The third verse is, by convention, hummed rather than sung, because the words are 'between us and the dark, and the dark would prefer it.'
