The Goblin That Whispers signal

To understand signal, one must first understand that goblins do not distinguish between finding something and inventing it. Both are acts of creation.

Calculations performed in the goblin observatory suggest that signal is moving — not through space, exactly, but through some other coordinate the goblins have no shared name for. The trajectory is gentle and the destination is unclear.

Goblins and ritual

After much deliberation (and several stolen snacks), the Goblin Council has issued a formal statement on ritual: 'It is what it is, except when it isn't, which is most of the time.' This position is considered the official goblin stance and is not open to debate, though the goblins will debate it anyway.

The singularity Manifestation

A goblin cartographer working on the singularity region produced a map that, by any conventional measure, is wrong. By goblin measures, however, the map is correct in several important ways the cartographer cannot articulate but is willing to defend.

The Goblin Verdict on signal

Field notes from the goblin Department of Loose Ends record signal as 'pending forever,' which is, in their classification system, the highest honor a topic can receive.
