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

Echoes of whisper in the Goblin Archive

After much deliberation (and several stolen snacks), the Goblin Council has issued a formal statement on whisper: '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.
