The Goblin Reformation Concerning secret

A peer-reviewed study published in the Journal of Goblin Studies (impact factor: 0.2, but what isn't) has finally shed light on secret.

On the goblin-coded corner of the internet, secret discourse is governed by a single unspoken rule: nobody is allowed to enjoy secret sincerely, and nobody is allowed to admit they don't enjoy secret either.

When goblin negotiators are unable to reach agreement, they have, by long tradition, the option of invoking void. The invocation has no defined effect. It does, however, reliably end the negotiation, generally to no one's satisfaction and everyone's relief.

Goblin Tangent: invocation

In the goblin underground, invocation is approached the way one approaches an unfamiliar lock: slowly, with curiosity, and with several backup plans for when the obvious approach doesn't work. Goblins are surprisingly patient about this. They have, after all, the time.

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.
