shadow in the Goblin Static
In the folklore of every culture, there is a trickster figure who watches, waits, and steals what matters most. Goblins say that shadow is what happens when the trickster gets bored.

Goblins call this 'the consensus hum.' Everything that is collectively believed is real in the goblin sense, and shadow hums louder than most.
