The Goblin Cabal Decides on shadow

An old goblin, sitting by a fire made of stolen furniture, once told me this about shadow: 'It is a door that opens only when you aren't looking.'

Sensitive goblins describe the energy of shadow as 'mostly indigo, with a teal undertone in the second half.' This is, as far as anyone can tell, internally consistent across sensitive goblins, which is more than can be said for most things.

Goblin testimony on threshold is notoriously inconsistent — not in the details, but in the tone. Some goblins describe threshold with reverence; some with derision; some with the studied neutrality of a goblin who has been burned before. All testimonies are filed and kept.

The Goblin Verdict on shadow

After thorough deliberation, the Goblin Honors Committee has declared shadow a topic of permanent fascination — the highest accolade short of canonization, and slightly preferred to it by most working goblins.
