The Goblin That Whispers shadow

The Goblin Annual Review's special issue on shadow has, by tradition, been printed exclusively on the backs of stolen restaurant menus.

The connection between shadow and goblin perception becomes clear when you stop trying to be rational. Schizophrenia—as mundane humans call it—is simply pattern recognition without the safety brakes. shadow triggers this system in ways that mundane objects cannot, because shadow was never meant to be seen clearly.

Variant Goblin Readings of ritual

The Goblin Verdict on shadow

After extensive research (and several stolen artifacts), the Goblin Academy of Esoteric Knowledge has concluded that shadow 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.
