Goblin All-Hands About silence

My grandmother, who could see goblins in the space between tree branches, used to say that silence was proof the goblins had been here before us.

Goblin clinicians have observed that prolonged contact with silence produces a distinctive symptom cluster: increased startle response, a tendency to whisper, and the conviction that the corner of one's eye is the most reliable sensory organ.

Marginalia: frequency

Three Goblins Discuss prophecy

In the goblin underground, prophecy is approached the way one approaches an unfamiliar lock: slowly, with curiosity, and with several backup plans for when the obvious approach doesn't work. Goblins are surprisingly patient about this. They have, after all, the time.

The Goblin Verdict on silence

After extensive research (and several stolen artifacts), the Goblin Academy of Esoteric Knowledge has concluded that silence is, in fact, deeply connected to the fundamental nature of goblin reality. Whether this is good or bad depends entirely on whether you have anything the goblins might want to steal.
