Visual-Novel Goblin Route: shadow

An internal goblin slide deck on shadow leaked Tuesday. The bullet points read, in their entirety: 'TBD, TBD, TBD, exit.'

When you stare at shadow long enough, it begins to stare back. This is not a metaphor. Goblins have documented cases where observers of shadow developed shared hallucinations about it. The phenomenon is well-known in goblin psychology, where it is called 'the mutual delusion protocol.'
