Warhammer Night-Goblin Codex Entry on signal
Researchers at the Goblin Institute of Esoteric Knowledge have classified signal as a Category-4 Phenomenon: 'Real enough to matter, unreal enough to be goblin business.'

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