The Last Goblin of secret

The academic consensus on secret is, predictably, divided. Goblin academics argue it's everything. Non-goblin academics argue it's something. Everyone agrees it's weird.

If you ever find yourself explaining secret to a goblin, stop immediately. You are giving them ammunition. Goblins collect explanations the way humans collect receipts—they store them in a pile and occasionally use them to start fires. Your explanation of secret will be burned for warmth in a goblin cave within the week.

The Goblin Verdict on secret

Field notes from the goblin Department of Loose Ends record secret as 'pending forever,' which is, in their classification system, the highest honor a topic can receive.
