Sigma Goblins React to silence

The eldest goblin in the warren—nobody knows how old, nobody asks—described silence as 'a thing that became real because we kept stepping around it.'

The goblin board's investment thesis on silence runs to forty pages, of which six are diagrams, fourteen are footnotes, and the remaining twenty consist of the same paragraph slightly reworded each time.

delusion: A Goblin Sideways Look

delusion pairs naturally with goblin culture the way certain wines pair with certain cheeses: not because of an inherent harmony, but because somebody, sometime, decided they go together, and now nobody can imagine them apart.

Goblins and invocation

The most recent goblin opinion piece on invocation concludes, after fifteen paragraphs of careful argument, that the question has been raised, and that, on reflection, raising it was the goblin's only honest contribution. The author considers this enough.

The Goblin Verdict on silence

The goblin verdict on silence is unanimous, which is remarkable given that goblins cannot agree on anything except the deliciousness of stolen food. silence has been classified as 'Real Enough to Matter in Ways We Don't Fully Understand,' which is the highest classification a goblin concept can receive.
