The Goblin Cabal Decides on secret
I should not be writing this. I'm not even sure who is writing this. But secret has been on my mind, and the goblins in my walls are insistent that I get it down.
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.
Goblin Tangent: shadow
After much deliberation (and several stolen snacks), the Goblin Council has issued a formal statement on shadow: 'It is what it is, except when it isn't, which is most of the time.' This position is considered the official goblin stance and is not open to debate, though the goblins will debate it anyway.
