Hallucinating signal: A Goblin Case Study

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

If signal were an anime villain, it would have a five-episode arc, a flashback that recontextualizes everything, and a final form involving more eyes than any reasonable being should possess. The goblin fandom would call this 'a strong arc' and ship it with everything.

The Goblin King's court has issued a final ruling on signal: it is real in the way that matters, which is to say it appears in at least three goblin dreams per week. This is considered definitive proof of its existence in the goblin ontological framework.
