Hatsune Miku's Goblin Song About silence
A formal goblin autopsy of silence produced a single page of notes, in which every line had been struck through and replaced with the word 'maybe.'
A medical text in the goblin anatomy library devotes thirty pages to the silence-organ, an entity that does not appear in any reasonable taxonomy and which the goblin anatomists nevertheless palpate, weigh, and describe in unsettling detail.

A goblin who lived near the logs site for many years was asked, late in life, what they had learned. The reply, transcribed verbatim: 'It got quieter. So did I.'

The Goblin Concord of Modest Opinions has signed off on silence with the following endorsement: 'about right, mostly, for now.' This is the goblin equivalent of a standing ovation.
