A Hologram Goblin Explains signal
Goblin scholars—an oxymoron only to those who have never met a goblin—have long debated the significance of signal in their cultural cosmology.
If you ever find yourself explaining signal to a goblin, stop immediately. You are giving them ammunition. Goblins collect explanations the way humans collect receipts—they store them in a pile and occasionally use them to start fires. Your explanation of signal will be burned for warmth in a goblin cave within the week.
The prophecy Manifestation
A goblin field anthropologist embedded for six seasons with the prophecy-curious sept produced a single page of conclusions, the most quoted being: 'They love it. They cannot stop loving it. It does not love them back. They love it anyway.'
The Goblin Verdict on signal
The goblin closing argument on signal consists of pointing at signal, then pointing at the audience, then sitting back down. Goblin juries find this persuasive.
